Which practice best helps mitigate security risks by minimizing root/core access and restricting deployment creation?

  1. Enforcing the principle of ‘trust and eventually verify on demand’
  2. Disabling multi-factor authentication for staff and focusing on decision makers’ accounts
  3. Deploying applications with full access and applying restrictions based on the need to object
  4. Enforcing the principle of least privilege

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Enforcing the principle of least privilege is the practice of granting users and systems the minimum level of access necessary to perform their tasks. By limiting root or core access and restricting the creation of deployments to only those who absolutely need it, the risk of unauthorized access, misuse, or damage is minimized. This helps ensure that critical systems and sensitive data are protected by reducing the number of people or services with high-level access.
Trust and verify on demand is not a standard security practice and could create security gaps. Disabling multi-factor authentication is a poor security practice, as multi-factor authentication (MFA) enhances security by adding an additional layer of verification. Deploying applications with full access) contradicts the principle of least privilege and could expose the system to unnecessary risks.



What is one primary operational challenge associated with using cloud-agnostic container strategies?

  1. Limiting deployment to a single cloud service
  2. Establishing identity and access management protocols
  3. Reducing the amount of cloud storage used
  4. Management plane compatibility and consistent controls

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

One of the primary operational challenges associated with using cloud-agnostic container strategies is ensuring management plane compatibility and consistent controls across multiple cloud environments. Cloud-agnostic strategies aim to make containers portable between different cloud providers. However, each cloud provider has its own management tools, APIs, and security controls, which can lead to complexities in maintaining consistent policies, monitoring, and management practices across different cloud environments.
Limiting deployment to a single cloud service is contrary to the goal of a cloud-agnostic strategy, which seeks to avoid reliance on a single cloud provider. Establishing identity and access management protocols is important but not unique to cloud-agnostic strategies; IAM challenges exist regardless of cloud approach. Reducing the amount of cloud storage used is a general optimization concern, not specifically related to cloud-agnostic containers.



How can the use of third-party libraries introduce supply chain risks in software development?

  1. They are usually open source and do not require vetting
  2. They might contain vulnerabilities that can be exploited
  3. They fail to integrate properly with existing continuous integration pipelines
  4. They might increase the overall complexity of the codebase

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The use of third-party libraries in software development can introduce supply chain risks because these libraries might contain vulnerabilities that can be exploited. Since third-party libraries often come from external sources, they might not be thoroughly vetted or maintained with the same level of scrutiny as in-house code. Vulnerabilities in these libraries can lead to security breaches, data leaks, or other forms of exploitation if not properly managed and updated.
Although many third-party libraries are open-source, they still require proper vetting for security and compatibility. Integration issues, while a concern, are not directly related to the supply chain risks posed by vulnerabilities.
While increased complexity is a challenge, it does not directly relate to security risks or supply chain concerns.



Which aspect is most important for effective cloud governance?

  1. Establishing a governance hierarchy
  2. Implementing best-practice cloud security control objectives
  3. Formalizing cloud security policies
  4. Negotiating SLAs with cloud providers

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

For effective cloud governance, implementing best-practice cloud security control objectives is the most important aspect. These control objectives help ensure that cloud environments are secure, compliant, and efficiently managed. They provide a structured approach to managing risks, securing data, and ensuring that the cloud services meet the organization's needs while adhering to industry standards and regulatory requirements.
Establishing a governance hierarchy is important for organizational structure, but it does not directly address the specific security and operational needs of cloud environments. Formalizing cloud security policies is crucial but typically falls under the broader scope of implementing security controls and governance frameworks.
Negotiating SLAs with cloud providers is important for service delivery, but it doesn't directly relate to the governance of security and risk management.



What are the essential characteristics of cloud computing as defined by the NIST model?

  1. Resource sharing, automated recovery, universal connectivity, distributed costs, fair pricing
  2. High availability, geographical distribution, scaled tenancy, continuous resourcing, market pricing
  3. On-demand self-service, broad network access, resource pooling, rapid elasticity, measured service
  4. Equal access to dedicated hosting, isolated networks, scalability resources, and automated continuous provisioning

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) defines the essential characteristics of cloud computing as:
On-demand self-service: Users can provision and manage computing resources automatically without requiring human intervention from the service provider.
Broad network access: Cloud services are accessible over the network through standard mechanisms,



enabling access from various devices and locations.
Resource pooling: Cloud providers pool computing resources to serve multiple consumers, with resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to demand.
Rapid elasticity: Cloud resources can be rapidly scaled up or down to meet varying demand.
Measured service: Cloud services are metered, and customers pay based on their usage, which allows for cost efficiency.
These characteristics define how cloud computing services are provided and accessed, focusing on flexibility, scalability, and efficiency.
