Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 228

What must SOAP rely on for security?

Answer options

• A. Encryption
• B. Tokenization
• C. TLS
• D. SSL

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as SOAP relies on TLS (Transport Layer Security) to provide secure communication over a network. While encryption is part of TLS, it is not sufficient on its own without the protocol to ensure secure transmission. SSL is an older protocol that has largely been replaced by TLS, making it less relevant for current SOAP implementations.
