Which strategy is considered the BEST for securing a corporate network that allows employees to use their personal smartphones and laptops for work purposes?
Deploying antivirus software on all personal devices used for work
Only allowing personal devices access to the Internet and not to internal systems
Isolating personal devices used for work in a separate network segment
Enabling a guest Wi-Fi for personal devices used for work
Isolating personal devices used for work in a separate network segment significantly reduces the risk of leaking sensitive data and the spread of potential threats across the corporate network. This method allows for more controlled and monitored access to resources while maintaining a strong security posture. In contrast, 'Enabling a guest Wi-Fi' does not offer sufficient control or security measures for devices that need to use corporate resources. 'Only allowing personal devices access to the Internet and not to internal systems' also limits functionality without necessarily improving security for tasks that require intranet access. 'Deploying antivirus software on all personal devices' is beneficial, but not sufficient on its own as it does not address network-level threats and segregation.
