What would be the best way for Dylan to enable this access?A. VPN Connection B. Internet Gateway C. Public IP Address D. VPC Endpoint Correct Answer: D A VPN connection seamlessly links endpoints on different networks, but is not the best answer in this case. An internet gateway connects an endpoint out to the Internet and is not the best choice for this situation. A public address is used to identify a host on the Internet, making it another incorrect answer.These three incorrect answers would allow the access but would require crossing public networks, reducing security, and adding inefficiency. The easiest and most secure way for Dylan to enable this access is through the use of a VPC endpoint that allows direct connections between the VPCs without leaving the cloud provider's secure network.   Interested in more practice test questions?   Get a copy of my official CertMike Practice Test books for the Security+ exam, CISSP exam, SSCP exam, or CySA+ exam and practice with hundreds of questions designed just like the real test! ...
