CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 152

An enterprise is working with a third party and needs to allow access between the internal networks of both parties for a secure file migration. The solution needs to ensure encryption is applied to all traffic that is traversing the networks. Which of the following solutions should most likely be implemented?

Answer options

• A. EAP
• B. IPSec
• C. SD-WAN
• D. TLS

Correct answer: B

Explanation

IPSec is the best choice as it provides end-to-end encryption for data packets, ensuring that all traffic between the two networks is secure during migration. EAP is an authentication protocol, not focused on encryption; SD-WAN optimizes WAN performance but does not inherently provide encryption; TLS is primarily used for securing web traffic rather than network-level encryption.
