ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

An organization is re-architecting its two-tier web application for deployment on a public IaaS cloud. The stateless web front-end will scale out and in frequently, while customers upload images that must be retained for at least five years to satisfy regulatory legal-hold requirements. Operations wants the lowest storage cost and availability independent of any single virtual machine's life cycle. Which cloud storage strategy best meets these needs?

  • Place uploads in the provider's managed object storage service with lifecycle rules to transition objects to an archival tier after 30 days.

  • Use a distributed file system built on compute instances and mount it via NFS to web servers.

  • Store uploads on the virtual machine's ephemeral root volume attached to each web instance.

  • Attach a block-level persistent disk to every web server and configure daily snapshots to a remote region.
