CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 92

A private cloud is using the iSCSI protocol for connection from storage to hypervisors. This connection is not encrypted currently, and the systems administrator is tasked with enabling on-the-fly encryption.
Which of the following technologies should the administrator use?

Answer options

• A. PKI
• B. IPSec
• C. HTTPS
• D. LUN encryption

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, PKI, because it provides a framework for managing digital certificates, which can be used to secure communication channels. IPSec (B) is typically used for secure IP communications, while HTTPS (C) is for secure web traffic, and LUN encryption (D) secures storage at rest rather than during transmission.
