The Harmony Endpoint solution provides a range of protections under its Data Security Software Capability, aimed at securing data on endpoint devices. Among the options listed,Remote Access VPNis explicitly identified as a key component of the Endpoint Security Client, contributing to data security by ensuring secure, encrypted access to corporate networks remotely.

TheCP_R81.20_Harmony_Endpoint_Server_AdminGuide.pdfdetails this onpage 20, in the "Endpoint Security Client" section, which lists components available on Windows:

"Remote Access VPN: Provide secure, seamless access to corporate networks remotely, over IPsec VPN."

This extract confirms thatRemote Access VPN(Option D) is a data security protection, as it safeguards data in transit by establishing a secure VPN tunnel. Further elaboration is found onpage 415, under "Remote Access VPN":

"The Remote Access VPN component is a simple and secure way for endpoints to connect remotely to corporate resources over the Internet, through a VPN tunnel."

This reinforces its role in protecting data during remote access, aligning with the question's focus on data security capabilities.

The other options do not match the documentation:

Option A ("Data Leak Firewall"): The guide mentions a "Firewall" component (page 20), but it is not specifically termed "Data Leak Firewall," and its primary role is network traffic control, not data leak prevention as a standalone capability.

Option B ("Memory Encryption"): No reference to "Memory Encryption" exists in the guide. Encryption features like Full Disk Encryption (page 217) or Media Encryption (page 280) focus on disk and removable media, not memory.

Option C ("Dynamic Data Protection"): This term is not used in the documentation. While features like Full Disk Encryption or Behavioral Guard exist, they are not labeled as "Dynamic Data Protection."

Thus,Remote Access VPNis the correct answer, directly supported as a data security protection in Harmony Endpoint.

When deploying an Endpoint Policy Server, configuring the heartbeat interval is critical. The heartbeat interval defines how often the client must communicate with the server to verify policy status and updates. The amount of time allowed for the client to connect ensures consistent enforcement of policies.

Exact Extract from Official Document:

"The heartbeat interval and the time allowed for client connections are critical settings to configure when deploying an Endpoint Policy Server."

Push Operationsallow the Endpoint Security Management Server to modify client settings, such as shutting down or restarting computers, without requiring a policy installation. This is detailed on page 69 under "Performing Push Operations," where the guide states that administrators can perform immediate actions like "Restart Computer" and "Shutdown Computer" on selected clients. Options like Remote Operations (A) and Node Management (B) are not documented features for this purpose, while Remote Help (C) is intended for user assistance, such as password recovery (page 425), not direct client modifications.

The Endpoint Security Manager (ESM), also referred to as the Endpoint Security Management Server, is the core component in Harmony Endpoint for managing policies, deployments, and monitoring. Its default configuration is detailed in theCP_R81.20_Harmony_Endpoint_Server_AdminGuide.pdf.

Onpage 23, under "Endpoint Security Management Server," the guide describes:

"Includes the Endpoint Security policy management and databases. It communicates with endpoint clients to update their components, policies, and protection data."

This statement establishes that the ESM’s primary role ismanagement, encompassing policy enforcement, database storage, and client communication. By default, it is configured as aManagement Server, aligning withOption C. The ESM oversees the entire endpoint security environment, distinguishing it from other server types.

Evaluating the alternatives:

Option A: Network Server– This is too generic and not a specific role defined for the ESM in Harmony Endpoint.

Option B: Webserver– While the ESM may host web interfaces (e.g., for SmartEndpoint), its core function is management, not web serving.

Option D: Log Server– Logging is a feature of the ESM (e.g., page 21 mentions monitoring), but its default and primary configuration is as a management server, not solely a log server.

Option Ccorrectly identifies the ESM’s default configuration as per the official documentation.
