Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 128

Which technique uses the management plane to detect various activities, such as file uploads or configuration changes?

Answer options

• A. Event-driven security
• B. Static Application Security Testing (SAST)
• C. Action security
• D. Auditing and logging
• E. Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Event-driven security is the correct answer as it specifically monitors activities through the management plane. The other options, such as SAST and DAST, focus on application security but do not primarily utilize the management plane for activity detection, while auditing and logging are more about recording events than actively detecting them.
