CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 332

A security administrator is integrating several segments onto a single network. One of the segments, which includes legacy devices, presents a significant amount of risk to the network. Which of the follow ng would allow users to access to the legacy devices without compromising the security of the entire network?

Answer options

• A. NIDS
• B. MAC filtering
• C. Jump server
• D. IPSec
• E. NAT gateway

Correct answer: C

Explanation

A Jump server acts as a controlled gateway for accessing legacy devices, allowing secure connections while isolating those devices from the rest of the network. Other options, like NIDS and IPSec, do not provide direct access, while MAC filtering is not sufficient for security in this context. NAT gateway does not address the access issue effectively.
