ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question
Your organization is evaluating cloud providers. Developers insist they must be able to create, modify, and delete virtual machines through a web portal or API at any time without opening support tickets. Which NIST-defined cloud characteristic must the provider explicitly demonstrate to satisfy this requirement?
The scenario describes the customer provisioning, altering, and de-provisioning resources unilaterally through a self-service interface. NIST identifies this as on-demand self-service. Rapid elasticity refers to the automatic scaling of capacity, resource pooling concerns abstracting and sharing provider resources among multiple customers, and measured service relates to metering and chargeback-all important but none guarantee user-initiated provisioning without provider interaction.
