Certified Cloud Security Professional – CCSP – Question262

A crucial decision any company must make is in regard to where it hosts the data systems it depends on. A debate exists as to whether it's best to lease space in a data center or build your own data center–and now with cloud computing, whether to purchase resources within a cloud.
What is the biggest advantage to leasing space in a data center versus procuring cloud services?

A. Regulations
B. Control
C. Security
D. Costs

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

Explanation: When leasing space in a data center versus utilizing cloud services, a customer has a much greater control over its systems and services, from both the hardware/software perspective and the operational management perspective. Costs, regulations, and security are all prime considerations regardless of the hosting type selected. Although regulations will be the same in either hosting solution, in most instances, costs and security will be greater factors with leased space.
