ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

While performing a risk assessment on a public IaaS provider, you discover that customer virtual machines are frequently live-migrated between hosts for load balancing. The migration traffic travels across an unsegmented management network and is not encrypted. Which risk should you flag as the most significant to confidential data handled by a tenant workload?

  • Temporary performance degradation on the VM due to increased hypervisor overhead

  • Complicated guest operating system patch schedules caused by host reallocation

  • Violation of per-CPU software licensing as the VM lands on differently licensed hosts

  • Exposure of in-memory tenant data to interception during migration traffic
