Answer 1

So, the total scenario is dependant upon requirements of the business whether they want the data cente to be an administrative, opertional or technical controls they want to implement. Comptia security+ course deals with how to implement security in the data center.

For intranet, extranet, DMZ and Internet we can use technical control types to provide security to the overall infrastructure from outside world threats.

For web servers, application servers, backup servers and OS servers, we can use the operational and technical controls and that can be implemented. These servers are usually used for operation purpose and providing security is important. Proper firewalls and anti-malware security solutions should be implemented.

Mail servers: for this administrative control will be best suited. Because a mail server always used generally for internal communication.

For network infrastructure, devices iris scanner, pin pad etc can use the administrative and technical controls of the comptia security+. Because, implementation of firewalls to the network infrastructure is a part of the comptia course.
