CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 198

A network team segmented a critical, end-of-life server to a VLAN that can only be reached by specific devices but cannot be reached by the perimeter network. Which of the following best describe the controls the team implemented? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Managerial
• B. Physical
• C. Corrective
• D. Detective
• E. Compensating
• F. Technical
• G. Deterrent

Correct answer: E, F

Explanation

The controls implemented by the team are Compensating (E) and Technical (F). Compensating controls provide alternative measures to secure the server's access, while technical controls refer to the VLAN segmentation and device restrictions that directly enforce security policies. The other options do not apply as they either refer to different types of management, physical measures, or monitoring rather than access control mechanisms.
