DRAG DROP
A manufacturer is planning to build a segregated network. There are requirements to segregate development
and test infrastructure from production and the need to support multiple entry points into the network depending
on the service being accessed. There are also strict rules in place to only permit user access from within the
same zone. Currently, the following access requirements have been identified:
1. Developers have the ability to perform technical validation of development applications.
2. End users have the ability to access internal web applications.
3. Third-party vendors have the ability to support applications.
In order to meet segregation and access requirements, drag and drop the appropriate network zone that the
user would be accessing and the access mechanism to meet the above criteria. Options may be used once or
not at all. All placeholders must be filled.

card servers were kept. The firewall rule was needed for an internal application that was developed, which
presents risk. The retailer determined that because the vendors were required to have site to site VPN’s no
other security action was taken.
