Lobby information kiosks need stronger endpoint hardening beyond signature AV alone. Which pair of controls best matches common host-hardening mitigations?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Kiosks sitting in the lobby need their own seatbelts. A host firewall plus HIPS watches what runs and what talks—even when the big perimeter firewall is looking the other way.
Full Explanation
Host-based firewalls restrict local network exposure while host intrusion prevention can block malicious behaviors on the endpoint. Disabling those controls or allowing broad lateral protocols weakens kiosk hardening relative to layered endpoint protection called for in mitigation objectives.
