QuestionQ26

Network Security

Which of the following can help prevent unauthorized modifications to hardware when designing an MDF closet?

Explanation

Lockable cabinets provide physical access control for the switches, routers, and patch panels housed in an MDF, directly preventing unauthorized personnel from tampering with or modifying the hardware. A UPS addresses power continuity, port security addresses unauthorized network access at a switchport, and microsegmentation addresses logical traffic isolation — none of these prevent someone from physically touching the equipment.
