Roaming assessor laptops connect from hotels and home networks to municipal apps but lack host firewalls and modern endpoint detection. Which measure best addresses this network-component concern?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Once that laptop leaves city hall, the campus firewall isn’t babysitting it anymore. Host firewall plus solid endpoint detection is the seatbelt for roaming gear—especially on hotel Wi-Fi.
Full Explanation
Endpoint security is part of securing network components because roaming hosts extend the trust boundary. Host firewalls and EDR-class tooling reduce compromise risk on untrusted networks and support detection when perimeter controls are absent. Captive portals and unmanaged local admin rights do not provide equivalent host protection for municipal data access.
