CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002) — Question 20

A company migrated all of its infrastructure to the cloud. The cloud security team must review the security post-migration.
Which of the following is the MOST appropriate task for the cloud security team to perform?

Answer options

• A. Risk register
• B. Threat assessment
• C. Application scan
• D. Vulnerability scan

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The most appropriate task for the cloud security team is to conduct a Vulnerability scan to identify potential security weaknesses in the cloud environment. While a Risk register, Threat assessment, and Application scan are important, they do not directly assess the security posture of the cloud infrastructure as effectively as a Vulnerability scan does.
