City VoIP phones and iSCSI storage traffic share the same congested campus links with no QoS and no segmentation. What risk assessment conclusion is most accurate?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Voice calls and storage blocks on one crowded pipe fight each other—and a breach on that flat path hits both. Converged networks need QoS and segmentation, not hope.
Full Explanation
Converged protocols such as VoIP and iSCSI sharing links create availability and confidentiality concerns: latency-sensitive voice suffers without QoS, and flat connectivity expands lateral movement and data-exposure risk. Architecture should combine quality-of-service with segmentation appropriate to traffic sensitivity. Recognizing multilayer/converged-protocol implications is a CISSP network-security expectation.
