ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your organization is rolling out a hardened Ubuntu 22.04 LTS virtual machine template onto a vSphere-based private cloud. After powering on the first instance you discover that drag-and-drop and copy-and-paste from the vSphere console are disabled and the interface has fallen back to an emulated E1000 network adapter, causing noticeably poor throughput. To restore expected management features and optimized paravirtualized drivers without relaxing the server's security baseline, which of the following should you do next?

  • Install and configure the latest open-vm-tools package inside the Ubuntu guest operating system.

  • Enable promiscuous mode on the virtual switch and open TCP port 5900 on the guest firewall so the console can pass traffic.

  • Disable Secure Boot for the virtual machine and apply the vendor's firmware updates from within the guest.

  • Manually edit the VM's .vmx file to set isolation.tools.copy.disable and isolation.tools.paste.disable to FALSE.
