Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 395

Which aspect of cloud computing serves as the biggest challenge to using DLP to protect data at rest?

Answer options

• A. Portability
• B. Resource pooling
• C. Interoperability
• D. Reversibility

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Resource pooling is the correct answer because it refers to the shared nature of resources in cloud environments, which can complicate the monitoring and protection of data at rest. The other options, while relevant to cloud computing, do not directly impact the implementation of Data Loss Prevention (DLP) in the same way that resource pooling does.
