CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 148

A company's cloud administrator receives an advisory notice from the CSP. The CSP runs quarterly tests on its platform and customer's environments. The cloud administrator reads the notice and sees the company's environment is at risk of buffer over-read exploits. Which of the following tests is the CSP MOST likely running on a quarterly basis?

Answer options

• A. Load testing
• B. Data integrity testing
• C. Vulnerability testing
• D. Performance testing

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Vulnerability testing, as it specifically identifies security weaknesses such as buffer over-read exploits. Load testing, data integrity testing, and performance testing focus on system performance and reliability rather than identifying security vulnerabilities.
