CompTIA Server+ (SK0-005) — Question 301

The management team has mandated the encryption of all server administration traffic. Which of the following should most likely be implemented?

Answer options

• A. SSH
• B. VPN
• C. SELinux
• D. FTPS

Correct answer: A

Explanation

SSH (Secure Shell) is specifically designed to secure remote administration of servers through encryption, making it the best choice. VPNs can encrypt traffic but are more suited for connecting remote networks securely, while SELinux is a security module that doesn't handle traffic encryption. FTPS is used for secure file transfers and is not focused on server administration traffic.
