Question:
A user is implementing security on a small office network. Which two actions would provide the minimum security requirements for this network? (Choose two.)

• implementing a firewall
• installing a wireless network
• installing antivirus software
• implementing an intrusion detection system
• adding a dedicated intrusion prevention device

Explanation: Technically complex security measures such as intrusion prevention and intrusion prevention systems are usually associated with business networks rather than home networks. Installing antivirus software, antimalware software, and implementing a firewall will usually be the minimum requirements for home networks. Installing a home wireless network will not improve network security, and will require further security actions to be taken.
