An online company uses a content delivery network (CDN) so that when a user visits the website, the site content is delivered from the server that is closest to the user's geographic location. Which of the following network characteristics is most likely to be affected by the use of a CDN?
  1. Network bandwidth.
  2. Data security.
  3. Network latency.
  4. Data privacy.
Explanation
Correct Response: C. Network latency is caused by the time taken by data to travel between a server and a user. The use of a CDN shortens the distance data travels between a server to a user. Therefore, a CDN should reduce network latency. A, B, and D are incorrect because bandwidth (A), security (B), and privacy (D) are not related to the distance that data travels.
