ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your organization stores daily customer invoices and application log files in the same public-cloud object bucket. Corporate policy requires invoices to remain immutable and accessible for seven years, after which they must be permanently deleted without any administrator action. Log files, on the other hand, may be retained only 30 days to control storage costs. Which solution best meets both retention requirements while minimizing ongoing operational effort?

  • Enable cross-region replication on the bucket so older objects are overwritten during the replication cycle, satisfying the deletion requirement automatically.

  • Set the bucket to read-only for all users; when seven years have passed, remove the bucket manually to delete the invoices and logs.

  • Create two object-lifecycle rules: one that transitions invoice objects to an immutable archival tier and schedules their deletion after seven years, and another that deletes log objects 30 days after creation.

  • Tag invoice objects as "DoNotDelete" and instruct administrators to run a quarterly script that purges data older than the required retention period.
