Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 208

During which phase of the cloud data lifecycle is it possible for the classification of data to change?

Answer options

• A. Use
• B. Archive
• C. Create
• D. Share

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The classification of data can change during the Create phase as new data is generated and may require different categorization based on its content or intended use. In contrast, during the Use, Archive, and Share phases, the data is typically already categorized, and changes to its classification are less likely to occur.
