ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

A cloud operations team must restrict and monitor interactive management-plane access to hypervisors that host multiple tenant VMs in an IaaS environment. Which security control will most effectively reduce the risk of administrator account compromise while still allowing required maintenance tasks to be performed from the corporate network?

  • Place the hypervisor management interfaces in a separate VLAN that is not advertised to tenant networks.

  • Route all administrator sessions through a dedicated jump server that requires multi-factor authentication before allowing SSH or RDP to the hypervisors.

  • Enable SNMPv2c on each hypervisor and restrict community strings to read-only.

  • Forward all hypervisor syslog messages to the corporate SIEM for correlation and alerting.
