CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002) — Question 96

Which of the following explains why a cloud provider would establish and publish a format data sanitization policy for its clients?

Answer options

• A. To establish guidelines for how the provider will cleanse any data being imported during a cloud migration
• B. To be transparent about how the CSP will handle malware infections that may impact systems housing client data
• C. To provide a value add for clients that will assist in cleansing records at no additional charge
• D. To ensure clients feel comfortable about the handling of any leftover data after termination of the contract

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because a data sanitization policy is essential for clients to feel secure about how their data will be managed once they terminate their relationship with the cloud provider. Options A, B, and C do not address the primary concern of client confidence regarding leftover data after contract termination.
