Certified Information Privacy Technologist (CIPT) — Question 272

What risk is mitigated when routing meeting video traffic through a company’s application servers, rather than sending the video traffic directly from one user to another?

Answer options

• A. The user’s identity is protected from the other user
• B. The user is protected against cyberstalking attacks
• C. The user’s IP address is hidden from the other user
• D. The user is assured that stronger authentication methods have been used

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Routing video traffic through application servers helps to conceal the user's IP address from other participants, which is important for privacy and security. The other options, while relevant to user safety, do not directly relate to the specific advantage of using application servers for video routing.
