Final answer:
The Computer Configuration node includes various security settings, such as Firewall settings, User access control, and Network encryption, but it does not include Antivirus software configurations, which are managed by specific antivirus applications.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Computer Configuration node within various Group Policy Management tools provides a way to set policies that influence the security and behavior of computer systems within a network. The security settings within this node cover areas such as Account Policies (Password Policy, Account Lockout Policy, Kerberos Policy)
Local Policies (Audit Policy, User Rights Assignment, Security Options)Public Key PoliciesSoftware Restriction PoliciesWindows Firewall with Advanced Security
Among the options provided:
Firewall settings (A) can be set under Windows Firewall with Advanced Security.User access control (B) is typically managed through policies such as User Rights Assignment and Security Options.Network encryption (C) can be enforced through settings such as those in Public Key Policies.
However, Antivirus software (D) settings and configurations are usually managed through specific antivirus software applications, and are not natively integrated into the Computer Configuration node of Group Policy. Therefore, option D) Antivirus software is NOT one of the security areas included in the Computer Configuration node security settings.
