ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your organization is migrating protected health information (PHI) to a public-cloud analytics platform. The data is already encrypted in transit and at rest, but it must be decrypted while queries run in the virtual machines. To improve security specifically during the use phase of the cloud data lifecycle-without forcing major application changes-which additional control should you recommend?

  • Implement client-side field-level encryption before uploading PHI to the cloud storage service.

  • Use confidential computing with hardware-based trusted execution environments to keep data encrypted during processing.

  • Configure automated cryptographic erasure of encryption keys once the retention period ends.

  • Enable object versioning and write-once-read-many (WORM) storage on the cloud data lake.
