A company is operating an online transaction processing system using managed database services and compute instances provided by a cloud service provider. What aspect of security is the company primarily responsible for in this scenario?
Overseeing the destruction of storage devices once they have reached the end of their life
Ensuring the database services and compute instances are configured to use secure communication protocols
Managing the underlying global infrastructure upon which the cloud services are built
Implementing physical security measures at the data centers hosting the compute infrastructure
In the AWS shared responsibility model, the customer is accountable for security 'in' the cloud. This includes the management of the operating system, network and firewall configuration, application security, identity and access management, and data encryption at rest and in transit. AWS takes responsibility for security 'of' the cloud, including protecting its infrastructure and services. The incorrect responses describe obligations that fall under AWS's purview, such as physical data center security and the disposal of storage devices.
