Question

Members of the sales team use laptops to connect to the company network. While traveling, they connect their laptops to the internet through airport and hotel networks. You are concerned that these computers will pick up viruses that could spread to your private network. You would like to implement a solution that prevents the laptops from connecting to your network unless anti-virus software and the latest operating system patches are installed. Which solution should you use

Answer 1

Answer: Network access control (NAC)

Explanation:

The solution that should be used is the network access control. Network access control helps in keeping devices and users that are unauthorized out of ones private network.

In this case, since one will like to prevent the laptops from connecting to the network unless anti-virus software and the latest operating system patches are installed, then the network access control can be used. One can only give access to the device that it wants to give access to and prevent others from connecting.
