Why each option

To block access to inappropriate websites and log corresponding attempts, a content filter is the most appropriate solution. Content filters are specifically designed to inspect web traffic and enforce policies based on website categories or blacklists.

AContent filterCorrect

A content filter is a system that screens incoming and outgoing web traffic to block access to websites based on categories, keywords, or blacklists, effectively preventing users from accessing inappropriate content. Most content filters also provide logging capabilities to record access attempts.

BScreened subnet

A screened subnet (DMZ) is a network architecture that creates a buffer zone between an organization's internal network and an external network, primarily for hosting public-facing servers.

CPort forwarding

Port forwarding directs traffic from an external port to an internal port on a specific device, used for network address translation, not for content filtering.

DAccess control list

An Access Control List (ACL) is a set of rules used to filter network traffic based on parameters like IP addresses, ports, and protocols, but it is not designed for granular content categorization and blocking of websites.
