ITPEC IP April 2019 Question 40
ITPEC IP April 2019 — Question 40 of 100
A file server containing confidential company information belongs on the protected internal LAN. It is intended for trusted internal access and should not be directly reachable from the Internet. A DMZ is used for systems that must provide public-facing services while remaining separated from the internal network.
Answer (c)
Why not others:
- an Internet-facing mail server must accept connections from outside
- a public authoritative DNS server must answer external queries
- a public web server must accept external requests
- these externally reachable services are suitable candidates for the DMZ
Key rule: Put public-facing servers in the DMZ and keep confidential internal resources behind the inner firewall on the corporate LAN.
