Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 48

Which of the following is NOT a cloud computing characteristic that impacts incidence response?

Answer options

• A. The on demand self-service nature of cloud computing environments.
• B. Privacy concerns for co-tenants regarding the collection and analysis of telemetry and artifacts associated with an incident.
• C. The possibility of data crossing geographic or jurisdictional boundaries.
• D. Object-based storage in a private cloud.
• E. The resource pooling practiced by cloud services, in addition to the rapid elasticity offered by cloud infrastructures.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Option D is correct because object-based storage in a private cloud does not inherently affect incident response in the same way that the other listed characteristics do. The other options relate directly to the unique challenges and considerations that cloud environments present during incidents, such as data privacy and jurisdictional issues.
