Dell EMC Associate – Information Storage and Management v5 — Question 85

An organization wants to replicate their data by extending the local network across a public network. Prior to implementing replication, they need to secure the network.

Which security control mechanism is recommended?

Answer options

• A. Virtual local area network
• B. Demilitarized zone
• C. Virtual storage area network
• D. Virtual private network

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The recommended security control mechanism is a Virtual Private Network (VPN) because it encrypts the data transmitted over the public network, ensuring secure communication. Other options like a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) and a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) do not provide the same level of security for data replication over public networks. A Virtual Storage Area Network (VSAN) is unrelated to securing network communications.
