Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) — Question 98

Sending data to a provider's storage over an API is likely as much more reliable and secure than setting up your own SFTP server on a VM in the same provider

Answer options

• B. True

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because using a provider's API for storage typically leverages their security measures and infrastructure, offering enhanced reliability and security compared to a self-managed SFTP server.
