Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) connects a set of computers over a relatively unsecure network (such as the internet) and uses encryption and special protocols to provide security. A proxy is a server that acts as an intermediary between a client and a server. UTM (Unified Threat Management) is a type of network security solution that combines multiple security features into a single appliance. Stateful inspection firewall is a type of firewall that keeps track of the state of network connections in order to apply security policies. None of these options fully meets the description given in the question except for VPN.
