The company that Evaggelia works for has moved to remote work for most employees and wants to ensure that the multimedia collaboration platform that they use for voice, video, and text-based collaboration is secure. Which of the following security options will provide the best user experience while providing appropriate security for communications?
Answer Options
Require software-based VPN to the corporate network for all use of the collaboration platform.
Require the use of SIPS and SRTP for all communications.
Use TLS for all traffic for the collaboration platform.
Deploy secure VPN endpoints to each remote location and use a point-to-point VPN for communications.
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
Most modern applications support TLS throughout their communications allowing clients to securely connect to the service and to encrypt communications. VPN, either in software or hardware form, will be more complex and unwieldy. Software-based VPN would be more flexible, and hardware-based VPN would be more expensive and more complex. SIPS and SRTP are appropriate for a VoIP environment but are not generally a complete solution for a modern multimedia collaboration platform like Microsoft Teams, Zoom, or WebEx.
