Question#1

Which of the following best describes the Identity Provider (IdP) and its role in managing access to deployments?

A. The IdP is used for authentication purposes and does not play a role in managing access to deployments.
B. The IdP manages user, group, and role mappings for access to deployments across cloud providers.
C. The IdP solely manages access within a deployment and resides within the deployment infrastructure.
D. The IdP is responsible for creating deployments and setting up access policies within a single cloud provider.

Explanation:
An Identity Provider (IdP) is responsible for authentication and authorization, particularly by managing user identities and their roles across various systems and services. In a cloud environment, the IdP facilitates the management of user, group, and role mappings that determine which users have access to which resources, including deployments across different cloud providers. The IdP acts as the central authority for managing identities and ensuring that users are granted appropriate access based on their roles and credentials.

Question#2

What is defined as the process by which an opposing party may obtain private documents for use in litigation?

A. Discovery
B. Custody
C. Subpoena
D. Risk Assessment
E. Scope

Question#3

Which of the following is a primary purpose of establishing cloud risk registries?

A. In order to establish cloud service level agreements
B. To monitor real-lime cloud performance
C. To manage and update cloud account credentials
D. Identify and manage risks associated with cloud services

Explanation:
A cloud risk registry is primarily used to identify and manage risks associated with cloud services. It serves as a tool for documenting, tracking, and assessing potential risks to the organization that arise from using cloud services. This includes risks related to security, compliance, availability, and performance. The risk registry helps organizations prioritize and mitigate these risks effectively to ensure the security and resilience of their cloud infrastructure.
Establishing SLAs is related to cloud contract management but not the primary purpose of a risk registry. Monitoring real-time cloud performance is a performance monitoring task, not the focus of a risk registry. Managing cloud account credentials is an aspect of identity and access management, not related to risk registries.

Question#4

What are the primary security responsibilities of the cloud provider in the management infrastructure?

A. Building and properly configuring a secure network infrastructure
B. Configuring second factor authentication across the network
C. Properly configuring the deployment of the virtual network, especially the firewalls
D. Properly configuring the deployment of the virtual network, except the firewalls
E. Providing as many API endpoints as possible for custom access and configurations

Question#5

Which benefit of automated deployment pipelines most directly addresses continuous security and reliability?

A. They enable consistent and repeatable deployment processes
B. They enhance collaboration through shared tools
C. They provide detailed reports on team performance
D. They ensure code quality through regular reviews

Explanation:
The most direct benefit of automated deployment pipelines in addressing continuous security and reliability is that they enable consistent and repeatable deployment processes. This ensures that the same steps are followed every time code is deployed, reducing human error and inconsistencies that could introduce vulnerabilities or reliability issues. Automated pipelines can also include security checks, such as static code analysis, vulnerability scanning, and automated testing, all of which help ensure that security and reliability are maintained continuously.
Enhancing collaboration through shared tools is a benefit of automated pipelines but doesn't directly address security and reliability. Providing detailed reports on team performance is useful for team management but doesn't directly contribute to security or reliability. Ensure code quality through regular reviews can improve security indirectly but is not the most direct benefit when it comes to continuous security and reliability in the deployment process.
