ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

An organization is selecting a virtualization technology for its new public IaaS offering. Customer VMs will share physical hosts. The security team wants the architecture that minimizes dependence on a general-purpose host OS so that a compromised guest has the least opportunity to escalate privileges to the underlying hardware. Which option best meets this requirement?

  • Running a Type 2 hypervisor on top of a stripped-down Linux host operating system

  • Using a hosted desktop virtualization platform installed within a Windows Server OS

  • Hosting workloads in Linux containers managed by Kubernetes on each server

  • Deploying a Type 1 (bare-metal) hypervisor directly on the server hardware
