An IT administrator needs to secure the connection for remote employees accessing the company's internal network to protect sensitive data. Which type of network setup should the administrator implement?
Virtual Private Network (VPN)
Local Area Network (LAN)
Proxy Server
Ad-Hoc network
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is designed to secure connections and protect sensitive data when users access a private network from remote locations. It achieves this by establishing an encrypted connection or 'tunnel' over the internet. An Ad-Hoc network is a simple peer-to-peer network without a central access point, mainly used for file transfers between systems in close proximity. It is not typically used to secure remote network access. A Local Area Network (LAN) connects computers in a small geographic area such as a home, school, computer laboratory, or office building but does not inherently provide a secure method for remote access. A Proxy Server acts as an intermediary between a client and server to filter requests, improve performance, and share connections; however, it does not create an encrypted tunnel for remote network access.
