CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 141

A cloud administrator is adding several accounts for new development team interns. These interns will need access to some, but not all, of the resources and will only be working over the summer. Which of the following user provisioning techniques should be used?

Answer options

• A. Create a single account for the interns to share. Set the expiration date for the account to six months.
• B. Create a role labeled "interns" with the appropriate permissions. Create a separate account with an expiration date for each intern and add each intern to that role.
• C. Create one template user account with the appropriate permissions and use it to clone the other accounts. Set an expiration date for each account individually.
• D. Create individual accounts for each intern, set the permissions and expiration date for each account, and link them to a temporary guests user group.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because creating a template user account allows for consistent permissions across all intern accounts while simplifying the setup process. Options A and D involve either sharing accounts or complicating account management with guest groups, which do not meet the requirement for individual access control. Option B, while valid, adds unnecessary complexity by creating a role instead of utilizing a template for efficiency.
