Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 140

Other than cost savings realized due to measured service, what is another facet of cloud computing that will typically save substantial costs in time and money for an organization in the event of a disaster?

Answer options

• A. Broad network access
• B. Interoperability
• C. Resource pooling
• D. Portability

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer, Resource pooling, refers to the ability of cloud computing to allocate resources dynamically to meet the demands during a disaster, which can save both time and costs. The other options, while important, do not directly contribute to cost savings in the same way; Broad network access enhances usability, Interoperability improves compatibility, and Portability allows for movement, but they don't specifically address resource efficiency in a disaster scenario.
