Q1

A multi-site healthcare provider, 'VitaHealth', is undertaking a major network modernization project. Their current infrastructure is a patchwork of solutions from different vendors, leading to inconsistent security policies, difficult troubleshooting, and high operational overhead. The CIO has mandated a unified, AI-driven network that enhances security for sensitive patient data (EHR), provides reliable connectivity for medical IoT devices (infusion pumps, heart monitors), and simplifies management across their 15 hospitals and 50+ clinics. The CISO is adamant about implementing a Zero Trust framework, requiring strict identity-based access control for all users and devices, including guest Wi-Fi for patients and their families. The IT operations team is understaffed and needs a solution that uses AI to proactively identify and resolve network issues before they impact clinical care. They also need a way to manage the entire wired and wireless network, from the campus to the smallest clinic, through a single interface. As the HPE Aruba Networking sales specialist, which comprehensive solution set should you propose to meet all of VitaHealth's key objectives?

Q5

A retail company needs to deploy a variety of IoT devices in its stores, including security cameras, price scanners, and digital signage. The CISO is concerned that a compromised IoT device could be used to access the corporate network and sensitive payment card data.
