ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question
While reviewing an IaaS contract, your legal team insists on a clause requiring that, if the service is terminated, you will have 45 days to export all virtual-machine images and data in a usable format and that the provider must securely purge any residual copies within the same period. Which cloud shared consideration is this clause intended to address?
The clause is focused on ensuring customers can retrieve their workloads and data at the end of the service relationship and that any remaining copies are securely deleted. This is the essence of the "Data Portability and Secure Deletion" (also called "Data Retrieval and Data Deletion") shared consideration, which explicitly covers export mechanisms and post-termination data destruction. Reversibility is sometimes used informally to describe disengagement, but in cloud governance frameworks it is the data portability and secure deletion consideration that formally defines these obligations. Portability focuses on moving workloads during normal operations, and resiliency addresses the service's ability to withstand disruptions-neither directly ensures end-of-contract data export and destruction.
