CISSP · Question #300

Which of the following adds end-to-end security inside a Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) connection?

The correct answer is D. Transport Layer Security (TLS). While SHA itself is not responsible for the end-to-end encryption, it's part of the IPSec protocol suite that ensures integrity and security. IPSec, in combination with L2TP, generally provides the end-to-end security you're referring to in this case, as it handles confidentialit

Explanation

While SHA itself is not responsible for the end-to-end encryption, it's part of the IPSec protocol suite that ensures integrity and security. IPSec, in combination with L2TP, generally provides the end-to-end security you're referring to in this case, as it handles confidentiality, authentication, and integrity. Therefore, SHA plays a role in the security aspect but isn't fully responsible by itself for end-to-end encryption.
