ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

During a compliance audit of your organization's public IaaS environment, the auditor asks for evidence that the underlying hypervisor is patched and configured according to a recognized benchmark. The cloud provider refuses to share the hypervisor configuration files or screenshots of the management console, citing multi-tenant security and proprietary information. Which specific assurance challenge of virtualization does this situation illustrate, and therefore should be addressed in future contractual language or right-to-audit clauses?

  • Inability to run vulnerability scans inside guest operating systems

  • Absence of perimeter firewalls between tenant virtual networks

  • Lack of encryption for data at rest on virtual machine disks

  • Limited transparency into provider-controlled hypervisor and virtualization management layers
