Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 403

You need to gain approval to begin moving your company's data and systems into a cloud environment. However, your CEO has mandated the ability to easily remove your IT assets from the cloud provider as a precondition.
Which of the following cloud concepts would this pertain to?

Answer options

• A. Removability
• B. Extraction
• C. Portability
• D. Reversibility

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, Reversibility, as it refers to the ability to remove IT assets from a cloud provider easily. Removability and Extraction do not specifically capture the broader concept of being able to reverse the cloud deployment, while Portability generally refers to moving applications and data between environments rather than specifically focusing on the removal aspect.
