A network security architect for an organization with a highly remote workforce implements an always-on VPN to meet business requirements. Which of the following best explains why the architect is using this approach?
A.
To facilitate device authentication using on-premises directory services
B.
To allow access to directly connected print and scan resources
C.
To enable usability of locally attached removable storage
D.
To authorize updates to change the PIN on a smart card
Always-on VPN ensures that devices connect automatically to the corporate network whenever they are online, allowing seamless access to internal resources and enabling authentication against on-premises directory services (such as Active Directory). This supports centralized identity management, GPO enforcement, and compliance requirements.
Options B, C, and D involve local or peripheral resources, which are unaffected by VPN state.
