Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 94

Which phase of the cloud data lifecycle would be the MOST appropriate for the use of DLP technologies to protect the data?

Answer options

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

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as the 'Share' phase involves distributing data to various users and systems, making it critical to apply Data Loss Prevention (DLP) technologies to safeguard sensitive information. The 'Use' phase focuses on data utilization, 'Store' pertains to data retention, and 'Create' involves data generation, none of which are as directly tied to the risks associated with sharing data.
