Certificate of Cloud Auditing Knowledge (CCAK) — Question 164

When identifying the governance stakeholders in an organization, which of the following roles would MOST likely be responsible for cloud migration and ongoing maintenance?

Answer options

• A. Enterprise architects
• B. IT
• C. Governance risk, and compliance (GRC)
• D. Cloud providers

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The IT department is primarily responsible for managing cloud migration and its ongoing maintenance, as they have the technical expertise and resources to handle these tasks. While enterprise architects and GRC roles are important for overall planning and compliance, they do not directly manage the execution of cloud services. Cloud providers offer services but do not manage the internal processes of the organization.
