Explanation

Defense-in-depth is a cybersecurity strategy that involves implementing multiple layers of security controls to protect systems and networks. Creating a separate VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) to isolate and segment networks is an application of this principle. VLANs help in segregating network traffic, controlling access between different network segments, and mitigating the impact of potential security breaches by limiting the spread of unauthorized access or attacks across the network. This segmentation adds an additional layer of security to the overall network
