CompTIA Security+ (SY0-601) — Question 769

A security architect is required to deploy to conference rooms some workstations that will allow sensitive data to be displayed on large screens. Due to the nature of the data, it cannot be stored in the conference rooms. The file share is located in a local data center. Which of the following should the security architect recommend to BEST meet the requirement?

Answer options

• A. Fog computing and KVMs
• B. VDI and thin clients
• C. Private cloud and DLP
• D. Full drive encryption and thick clients

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The best solution for this scenario is VDI and thin clients, as VDI allows users to access sensitive data securely from remote locations without storing it locally, while thin clients provide minimal local storage and processing. Fog computing and KVMs do not directly address the requirement for secure data access, while private cloud and DLP, as well as full drive encryption with thick clients, do not provide the flexibility and security needed for accessing real-time data in a conference setting.
