Certified Cloud Security Professional – CCSP – Question389

When an organization is considering a cloud environment for hosting BCDR solutions, which of the following would be the greatest concern?

A.
Self-service
B. Resource pooling
C. Availability
D. Location

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

Explanation: If an organization wants to use a cloud service for BCDR, the location of the cloud hosting becomes a very important security consideration due to regulations and jurisdiction, which could be dramatically different from the organization’s normal hosting locations. Availability is a hallmark of any cloud service provider, and likely will not be a prime consideration when an organization is considering using a cloud for BCDR; the same goes for self-service options. Resource pooling is common among all cloud systems and would not be a concern when an organization is dealing with the provisioning of resources during a disaster.
