QuestionQ16

Security

Independent contractors frequently work from a business’s lobby. Although the business provides Wi-Fi, contractors often connect their laptops to Ethernet ports in the lobby. Which action should a security engineer take to most efficiently address a potential security concern with this network setup?

Explanation

Unused or publicly accessible switch ports should be disabled to prevent unauthorized wired access. External users should use a guest wireless network, which can be segmented from internal business resources; this prevents their laptops from connecting directly through lobby Ethernet ports.
