Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH v11) — Question 61
Abel, a cloud architect, uses container technology to deploy applications/software including all its dependencies, such as libraries and configuration files, binaries, and other resources that run independently from other processes in the cloud environment. For the containerization of applications, he follows the five-tier container technology architecture. Currently, Abel is verifying and validating image contents, signing images, and sending them to the registries.
Which of the following tiers of the container technology architecture is Abel currently working in?
Answer options
- A. Tier-1: Developer machines
- B. Tier-2: Testing and accreditation systems
- C. Tier-3: Registries
- D. Tier-4: Orchestrators
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B because verifying and validating image contents, along with signing images, are activities typically associated with testing and accreditation systems. The other tiers do not involve these validation processes; Tier-1 focuses on development, Tier-3 pertains to storage in registries, and Tier-4 deals with orchestration of containers.
