Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 13

Which opportunity helps reduce common application security issues?

Answer options

• A. Elastic infrastructure
• B. Default deny
• C. Decreased use of micro-services
• D. Segregation by default
• E. Fewer serverless configurations

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Segregation by default ensures that applications operate in isolated environments, thus limiting exposure to vulnerabilities. The other options, while relevant to infrastructure and architecture, do not directly address the reduction of application security issues as effectively as segregation does.
