CompTIA Network+ (N10-007) — Question 123

A network technician needs to set up an access method for Ann, a manager, to work from home. Ann needs to locally mapped corporate resources to perform her job. Which of the following would provide secure access to the corporate resources?

Answer options

• A. Utilize an SSH connection to the corporate server.
• B. Use TFTP to transfer files to corporate resources.
• C. Allow RDP through an external firewall.
• D. Connect utilizing client-to-site VPN.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as a client-to-site VPN provides a secure tunnel for remote access to corporate resources, allowing Ann to access the network as if she were physically present. Option A, while secure, does not provide the necessary local mapping of resources. Option B is not secure and is unsuitable for accessing corporate resources. Option C allows RDP access but lacks the necessary security features provided by a VPN.
