CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 51

Ann, the lead product developer for a company, just hired three new developers. Ann asked the cloud administrator to give these developers access to the fileshares in the public cloud environment. Which of the following is the BEST approach for the cloud administrator to take?

Answer options

• A. Clone Ann's account to create three new developer accounts.
• B. Distribute the credentials of Ann's shared account to the three new developers.
• C. Copy the fileshares to each new developer's laptop.
• D. Create a new role to access the fileshares and assign the three new developers.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Creating a new role for the file shares and assigning it to the three new developers is the best approach because it maintains security and proper access control. Cloning Ann's account or sharing her credentials compromises account security, while copying files to personal laptops poses additional risks regarding data management and security compliance.
