Which network device would most likely be used to implement network security policies?

A) Cloud-based controller
B) IDS
C) UPS
D) Firewall

The most appropriate network device to implement network security policies is a firewall. A firewall is designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network by monitoring and filtering traffic based on a set of predefined security rules. This helps to protect the network from external threats and prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data. IDS (Intrusion Detection System) and UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) are not primarily designed for implementing network security policies, while cloud-based controllers may be used for managing and monitoring network devices, but not necessarily for enforcing security policies.
