Certified Cloud Security Professional – CCSP – Question226
From a security perspective, what component of a cloud computing infrastructure represents the biggest concern? A. Hypervisor B. Management plane C. Object storage D. Encryption
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation: The management plane will have broad administrative access to all host systems throughout an environment; as such, it represents the most pressing security concerns. A compromise of the management plane can directly lead to compromises of any other systems within the environment. Although hypervisors represent a significant security concern to an environment because their compromise would expose any virtual systems hosted within them, the management plane is a better choice in this case because it controls multiple hypervisors. Encryption and object storage both represent lower-level security concerns.
