Your organization is experiencing rapid growth and expects a significant increase in online transaction volume over the next year. As a security professional assessing the infrastructure to accommodate future demands, which of the following would be the BEST measure to ensure the infrastructure can scale securely and effectively?
Consolidate all data storage into a single geographic region to reduce complexity and ensure all users access the same resources.
Vertically scale the existing infrastructure by upgrading the current server to a model with more processing power and memory.
Plan for horizontal scaling by adding additional servers or utilizing cloud-based resources to distribute the load evenly across multiple hardware platforms.
Invest in a more powerful server to replace the current one, ensuring that the new hardware can handle the anticipated load for the next year.
