CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 148
Several employees have expressed concerns about the company monitoring their internet activity when they are working from home. The company wants to mitigate this issue and reassure employees that their private internet activity is not being monitored. Which of the following would satisfy company and employee needs?
Answer options
- A. Split tunnel
- B. Full tunnel
- C. Site-to-site tunnel
- D. Virtual desktop
Correct answer: A
Explanation
A split tunnel allows employees to access the internet directly for personal use while using a secure connection for work-related activities, thus protecting their privacy. In contrast, a full tunnel would route all traffic through the company's network, leading to potential monitoring of personal browsing. Site-to-site tunnels are used for connecting different networks rather than individual employee devices, and a virtual desktop does not inherently provide privacy for personal internet activity.
