CompTIA Network+ N10-009 Practice Question
In network security terms, what distinguishes a 'trusted zone' from an 'untrusted zone'?
A trusted zone permits all inbound and outbound traffic without restrictions, whereas an untrusted zone applies strict traffic filtration.
An untrusted zone typically contains only organizational web services, while a trusted zone includes user-accessible internet services.
Trusted zones require external authentication methods, while untrusted zones use internal verification mechanisms only.
A trusted zone hosts sensitive data or infrastructure, requiring stricter security measures, while an untrusted zone interfaces more with external networks.
