Why should security agents have multiple Smart Protection Servers assigned?

Assigning multiple Smart Protection Servers to security agents is primarily done to avoid a single point of failure. This approach enhances the resilience and reliability of the security infrastructure. If only one Smart Protection Server is assigned and that server encounters an issue or goes down, all agents depending on it may be unable to receive updates or perform their functions effectively. By implementing multiple servers, the system can continue to operate normally even if one server is unavailable, ensuring that protection measures remain robust and uninterrupted.

This design promotes better load distribution and failover capabilities, allowing security tasks to be handled smoothly without compromising performance or security. While other options might touch on aspects of operational efficiency in a broader sense, the core objective in assigning multiple Smart Protection Servers is about ensuring continuous service availability and mitigating risks associated with server failures.
