ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your company, a SaaS provider subject to PCI DSS, plans to add a second data center to support disaster recovery with a recovery time objective of four hours. The executive team is comparing leasing space in a carrier-neutral colocation facility versus purchasing land and building a new private data center from the ground up. Which argument best supports choosing the colocation option from a physical design and security perspective?

  • Leasing guarantees exclusive use of the entire building, eliminating any possibility of tenant cross-contamination.

  • Colocation shifts all ongoing operational expenses to the landlord so the company incurs virtually no recurring costs after installation.

  • The facility already provides multi-layer physical security and industry certifications, allowing the company to meet compliance and availability goals quickly while avoiding large capital expense.

  • Building a private site offers direct control of physical safeguards, removing dependence on shared infrastructure maintained by a third party.
