Certificate of Cloud Auditing Knowledge (CCAK) — Question 43

A cloud service provider does not allow audits using automated tools as these tools could be considered destructive techniques for the cloud environment. Which of the following aspects of the audit will be constrained?

Answer options

• A. Purpose
• B. Objectives
• C. Nature of relationship
• D. Scope

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the scope of the audit will be restricted by the inability to use automated tools, limiting what can be assessed. The purpose, objectives, and nature of the relationship can remain unchanged as they do not directly depend on the methods used for conducting the audit.
