Explanation
The core problem is preventing salespeople from inadvertently accessing each other's client data. Network segmentation isolates each salesperson's systems into separate network zones or VLANs, ensuring that even within a shared cloud environment, one salesperson cannot reach another's data stores or systems. A CRM tool (A) manages relationships but the question is about infrastructure-level isolation. Single-tenancy cloud (B) would work for customer isolation at the cloud level but is expensive and may not address salesperson-to-salesperson isolation. An open-source public cloud CRM (D) provides no specific isolation mechanism. Network segmentation directly enforces the separation principle at the infrastructure layer.
