CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 8

A manufacturing company's current security policy mandates PII is not stored in the SaaS solution. Which of the following configuration controls should be used to block sensitive information from being stored in the SaaS solution?

Answer options

• A. Implement file-level encryption.
• B. Implement a network ACL.
• C. Implement an IPS.
• D. Implement content filtering.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

A network ACL is effective in controlling access to network resources and can be configured to block data transfer that includes PII. File-level encryption, IPS, and content filtering do not specifically prevent sensitive information from being stored; instead, they focus on securing data, detecting intrusions, or filtering content, which does not directly address the storage issue.
