CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-003) — Question 242

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of a small company decides to use cloud computing to host critical corporate data for protection from natural disasters. The recommended solution is to adopt the public cloud for its cost savings. If the CEO insists on adopting the public cloud model, which of the following would be the
BEST advice?

Answer options

• A. Ensure the cloud provider supports a secure virtual desktop infrastructure
• B. Ensure the colocation facility implements a robust DRP to help with business continuity planning
• C. Ensure the on-premises datacenter employs fault tolerance and load balancing capabilities
• D. Ensure the ISP is using a standard help-desk ticketing system to respond to any system outages

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The best advice is to ensure the colocation facility implements a robust DRP to help with business continuity planning, as this directly addresses the need for disaster recovery in a public cloud environment. Other options, while important, do not specifically focus on disaster recovery and continuity which is crucial for protecting critical data during natural disasters.
