Randy is concerned about his company’s data security on the Internet. Because cellular signals are not encrypted, he is concerned that the new smartphones given to the sales department will allow a breach. Randy has decided the company needs a more secure way to allow the sales department to connect to the company network over the Internet.

What should Randy deploy to allow the sales department to connect to the company network securely over a cellular data signal?

A. SSH
B. VPN
C. IMEI
D. POP3

Randy should deploy SSH to allow the sales department to connect to the company network securely over cellular data signal.

Explanation:

Option A is the correct answer because SSH means Secure Shell. And Secure Shell is a cryptographic network protocol for operating network services securely over an unsecured network. Any network service can be secured with SSH

Option B is not correct because VPN mean virtual private network. And what VPN does is to extends a private network across a public network, and enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network.

Option C is not correct because IMEI means International Mobile Equipment Identity and is a number that is use to uniquel identify 3GPP and iDEN mobile phones, as well as some satellite phones.

Option D is not correct because POP3 is an example of email protocol. Post Office Protocol version 3 (POP3) is a standard mail protocol used to receive emails from a remote server to a local email client. POP3 allows you to download email messages on your local computer and read them even when you are offline.
