Certificate of Cloud Auditing Knowledge (CCAK) — Question 119

When cloud customers are unable to satisfy their payment obligations, which type of termination is triggered by the cloud service provider?

Answer options

• A. Termination for the missed payment
• B. Termination at the end of the term
• C. Termination for convenience
• D. Termination for cause

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is 'Termination for cause' because it typically applies to situations where there is a breach of contract, such as failing to make payments. The other options do not apply to non-payment scenarios; 'Termination for the missed payment' is not a standard term, 'Termination at the end of the term' refers to the natural conclusion of a contract, and 'Termination for convenience' allows termination without cause, which does not relate to payment issues.
