Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 78

Which cloud security model type provides generalized templates for helping implement cloud security?

Answer options

• A. Conceptual models or frameworks
• B. Design patterns
• C. Controls models or frameworks
• D. Reference architectures
• E. Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM)

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Reference architectures, as they provide standardized blueprints for implementing cloud security solutions. The other options, while relevant to cloud security, do not specifically focus on providing generalized templates. For instance, design patterns (B) are more about specific solutions rather than generalized frameworks.
