CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 336

An organization issued new laptops to all employees and wants to provide web filtering both in and out of the office without configuring additional access to the network. Which of the following types of web filtering should a systems administrator configure?

Answer options

• A. Agent-based
• B. Centralized proxy
• C. URL scanning
• D. Content categorization

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct option is A, Agent-based, because it allows for web filtering directly on the laptops, ensuring protection both inside and outside of the office without needing additional network configurations. The other options, such as centralized proxy, may require network access changes, while URL scanning and content categorization do not provide the same level of flexibility for remote users.
