Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 125

Which statement best describes a data (information) dispersion fragmentation scheme?

Answer options

• A. A network is split into nodes; all of the nodes store only certain types of files.
• B. Fragmented files are signed and stored together on a local server; data retrieval is arbitrary.
• C. File fragments are sequentially placed on servers based on the physical location of the data user.
• D. A cloud is split into cloudlets; each cloudlet stores a portion of the files based on an encryption algorithm.
• E. A file is split into fragments; all of the fragments are sent to multiple physical storage repositories.

Correct answer: E

Explanation

The correct answer E accurately describes the process of splitting a file into fragments and distributing them across multiple storage repositories to enhance security and reliability. Options A, B, C, and D do not capture the essence of data dispersion through fragmentation and focus instead on different aspects of data storage or retrieval methods.
