CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 (V7) Practice Question

A Policy Enforcement Point (PEP) is a security control that enforces access policies. In a Zero Trust model, it ensures that all resources are accessed securely, regardless of network location, enforcing the principle of least privilege. PEP checks for compliance with the security policy before granting access to a resource, thus acting as a gatekeeper that allows or denies traffic based on the defined policy.
