ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your organization is standardizing on a single data classification policy (Public, Internal, Confidential, Restricted) before migrating workloads to AWS, Azure, and GCP. Planned controls-such as automatic encryption, data loss prevention, and lifecycle rules-will trigger from metadata tags that carry the classification value on every object or datastore. Which planning decision will most help prevent gaps in those controls as data moves between the three cloud platforms?

  • Create separate tag schemes for each provider and translate the labels through an API proxy when data is replicated.

  • Tag only personally identifiable information (PII) as sensitive and leave all other data untagged to simplify tagging workflows.

  • Permit project teams to define additional custom classification levels so they can refine the four-level scheme as needed.

  • Adopt a uniform, provider-agnostic set of classification tags that uses the same names and format in every cloud account and subscription.
