Brenda is assisting a user who is traveling on business and is unable to access a critical system. Brenda is able to access the system herself and the user was able to access it last week from the office. The user connected to the VPN and is still having the same issue. What type of access restriction is most likely in place?
A. Time-based restriction
B. Role-based restriction
C. Content-based restriction
D. Location-based restriction
Correct Answer: D
The only factor that changed is the user’s location, making a location-based restriction the most likely culprit. This type of restriction can apply even when a user connects to a VPN. We know that it is not a content-based restriction or role-based restriction because the user was able to access the same system when in the office. We also can surmise that it is not likely a time-based restriction because Brenda is able to access the system at the same time.
