CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 92

Which of the following provides secure, private communication between cloud environments without provisioning additional hardware or appliances?

Answer options

• A. VPN
• B. VPC peering
• C. BGP
• D. Transit gateway

Correct answer: B

Explanation

VPC peering allows direct communication between two VPCs in the same region or across regions without additional hardware, ensuring secure data transfer. VPNs typically require dedicated hardware and setup, BGP is a routing protocol rather than a communication method, and Transit Gateway is more complex and not necessary for simple VPC communication.
