- DCreate an IP camera network and restrict access to cameras from a single management host.
Explanation
Answer C is correct because it compensates for the camera vendor's lack of authentication capability by inserting an authenticating proxy between users and the cameras. The proxy becomes the authentication enforcement point - users authenticate to the proxy, and only then can they access camera streams. This is a classic compensating control pattern. Answer A (NIPS) would detect/block intrusion attempts but does not authenticate authorized users. Answer B (SSL access) provides encryption in transit but still lacks any user authentication, meaning anyone who can reach the camera URL can view the feed. Answer D (single management host) creates a bottleneck that doesn't scale to multiple guard desks on different networks and doesn't enforce per-user authentication.
