CompTIA Cloud+ (CV1-003) — Question 14

An organization's web server farm, which is hosted in the cloud with DNS load balancing, is experiencing a spike in network traffic. This has caused an outage of the organization's web server infrastructure.
Which of the following should be implemented to prevent this in the future as a mitigation method?

Answer options

• A. Enable DLP
• B. Configure microsegmentation
• C. Enable DNSSEC
• D. Deploy a vADC appliance

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Deploying a vADC appliance can effectively manage and distribute increased traffic to ensure that the web server infrastructure remains operational during spikes. The other options, while useful for different security and performance aspects, do not directly address the need for load balancing and traffic management in this context.
