CompTIA Network+ N10-009 Practice Question

Installing firewalls to segment and protect data environments is in direct alignment with PCI DSS requirements, which mandate the use of firewalls to protect cardholder data within a secure network segment. By contrast, enabling two-factor authentication, while enhancing security, specifically pertains to user access and does not solely focus on PCI DSS environments. Similarly, maintaining daily backup schedules enhances data availability but does not address the direct needs of securing transactional data environments as per PCI DSS requirements. Regular patch management is also crucial but does not have the singular focus on cardholder data protection needed for PCI DSS compliance.
