QuestionQ667

Network and Communications Security

Why is it difficult to monitor traffic across a packet-switched network?

  • A Packets are link encrypted by the carrier
  • B Government regulations forbids monitoring
  • C Packets can take multiple paths when transmitted
  • D The network factor is too high
Explanation

Packets in a packet-switched network can be routed independently over multiple paths. As a result, traffic from one communication may not all be visible at one monitoring point and may arrive out of order.
