CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 47

An organization would like to store customer data on a separate part of the network that is not accessible to users on the main corporate network. Which of the following should the administrator use to accomplish this goal?

Answer options

• A. Segmentation
• B. Isolation
• C. Patching
• D. Encryption

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Segmentation, as it involves dividing the network into separate segments to enhance security and control access. Isolation, while similar, does not specifically refer to the practice of creating segments within a network. Patching relates to updating software for security, and Encryption protects data but does not address network access control.
