CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 163

A cloud administrator is assigned to establish a connection between the on-premises data center and the new CSP infrastructure. The connection between the two locations must be secure at all times and provide service for all users inside the organization. Low latency is also required to improve performance during data transfer operations. Which of the following would BEST meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. A VPC peering configuration
• B. An IPSec tunnel
• C. An MPLS connection
• D. A point-to-site VPN

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, an IPSec tunnel, as it provides a secure connection that encrypts data in transit, which is essential for maintaining security. Options A and C do not emphasize the level of security needed for the data transfer, while D is typically suited for individual users rather than an entire organization, making it less appropriate for this scenario.
