CCSK Exam Dumps - Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Security Knowledge Questions and Answers

Serverless environments are vulnerable to misconfigurations, which can expose sensitive data and resources, making security configurations critical. Reference: [Security Guidance v5, Domain 8 - Cloud Workload Security][16†source].

Classification and cataloging help assign security controls and manage data based on its sensitivity and criticality. Reference: [CCSK v5 Curriculum, Domain 9 - Data Security]

Multiple independent deployments help isolate workloads, reducing the potential impact of a breach by confining it to a single deployment environment. Reference: [Security Guidance v5, Domain 7 - Infrastructure & Networking]

Centralized logging aggregates logs in one location, making it easier to monitor, analyze, and comply with regulatory requirements. Reference: [Security Guidance v5, Domain 6 - Security Monitoring]

Object storage is highly scalable and suitable for cloud-native applications that require durability and efficient storage of unstructured data. Reference: [CCSK Study Guide, Domain 9 - Data Storage Types]

Behavioral detection for IAM and management plane activities is essential for identifying unusual or suspicious actions by compromised identities, especially in environments where attackers use automated tactics. Reference: [CCSK v5 Curriculum, Domain 5 - IAM]

While AI improves threat detection, it also introduces risks as attackers can use it to develop advanced attack methods. Organizations must balance these risks. Reference: [CCSK Study Guide, Domain 12 - AI and Security]

Cloud governance establishes controls and policies that align with the organization’s goals for security, compliance, and efficient management in the cloud. Reference: [Security Guidance v5, Domain 2 - Cloud Governance]

In a cybersecurity environment, it is important to capture and centralize workload logs promptly because logs may be lost during a scaling event. When workloads are scaled up or down, such as when cloud resources are dynamically allocated, logs may not be properly captured or may be overwritten if they are not centralized and stored in a reliable, persistent location. Centralizing logs ensures that valuable security data is not lost during these events and can be accessed for incident detection, analysis, and response.
