Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 143

CCM: The Cloud Service Delivery Model Applicability column in the CCM indicates the applicability of the cloud security control to which of the following elements?

Answer options

• A. Mappings to well-known standards and frameworks
• B. Service Provider or Tenant/Consumer
• C. Physical, Network, Compute, Storage, Application or Data
• D. SaaS, PaaS or IaaS

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the Cloud Service Delivery Model Applicability column directly relates to the types of service models, specifically Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Options A, B, and C focus on standards, stakeholders, or layers of architecture, which do not pertain to the delivery model applicability.
