Google Cloud Digital Leader — Question 147

What is a benefit of the OpEx model for cloud security?

Answer options

• A. Organizations do not need to make upfront capital investments in cloud security.
• B. Organizations can deploy custom security hardware.
• C. Organizations do not need to configure any security settings for cloud resources.
• D. The cloud provider guarantees security.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The OpEx model allows organizations to pay for cloud security as an ongoing operational expense rather than as a large upfront capital expenditure, making it more financially flexible. The other options are incorrect because the OpEx model does not focus on deploying custom hardware, configuring settings, or guaranteeing security by the provider.
