Correct answer: Agent-based.
Why this is the answer
Agent-based web filtering is the correct choice because it installs software directly on each laptop. This agent enforces web filtering policies regardless of the network the laptop is connected to, providing consistent protection both in and out of the office without requiring additional network configurations or VPNs. Centralized proxy filtering requires all web traffic to pass through a specific proxy server, which would not work seamlessly when employees are outside the office network without additional configurations like a VPN. URL scanning is a method of web filtering, not a deployment type, and doesn't inherently address the off-network requirement. Content categorization is also a feature or method of web filtering, not a standalone deployment solution that ensures off-network protection.
