CompTIA Security+ study material · question 372 of 611

A request arrives from a server inside the corporate data centre. Under zero trust, how should it be treated?

  1. Trusted for read operations only
  2. Blocked, because internal traffic should use a different path
  3. Subject to the same requirements as a request from any other network
  4. Trusted, because it originates on enterprise infrastructure
Show the answer

Answer: C. Subject to the same requirements as a request from any other network

Network location alone implies no trust; all communication is secured regardless of where it starts.
