Nutanix Certified Professional – Unified Storage v6.5 (NCP-US) — Question 36

An administrator has been directed to configure Volumes to Nutanix’s best practices for security.
What should the administrator do to be compliant?

Answer options

• A. Enable at-rest encryption on Volume Groups.
• B. Configure Volume Groups to use CHAP.
• C. Segment iSCSI traffic to a physically separate network.
• D. Use the data services IP for external host connectivity.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because configuring CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) enhances security by requiring authentication for iSCSI connections. While enabling at-rest encryption (A) and segmenting traffic (C) are important security measures, they do not directly address the compliance requirement specified in the question. Using the data services IP (D) relates to connectivity rather than security compliance.
