CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 11
A cloud administrator for a state government agency is tasked with giving access to the voter registration application to a government agency in another state.
Only authorized officials from each state should access the application. These agencies have a common environment where applications have been deployed in the past. Which of the following should the cloud administrator do to give access to the application?
Answer options
- A. Deploy part of the application into a public cloud and establish secure connections to a private cloud environment.
- B. Deploy the application to a community cloud that is shared with multiple state government agencies only.
- C. Deploy the application to a public cloud and implement ACLs and security access policies to limit access.
- D. Deploy the application to the state's private cloud and give authentication credentials to the other state's authorized officials.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because deploying the application to a public cloud allows for broader accessibility while implementing ACLs and security access policies ensures that only authorized officials can access it. Options A and D do not effectively provide access control in a public environment, while B limits the application to only state agencies, which may not be necessary.
