ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your security team feeds a cloud-hosted SIEM with machine-learning analytics using three sources today: cloud provider API audit logs, operating-system event logs from all virtual machines, and alerts from the web application firewall placed at the Internet edge. Despite this, recent red-team testing showed that malware running in a compromised container was able to communicate with a second subnet and establish command-and-control (C2) traffic without triggering any alert. To close this visibility gap while re-using the SIEM's analytics, which additional data source should you integrate first?

  • Weekly status exports from the enterprise patch-management platform.

  • Access logs from the object storage service that record read and write operations.

  • Invocation metrics from all serverless functions handling background jobs.

  • East-west flow logs from the cloud virtual network (such as VPC Flow Logs or VNet Flow Logs) that record traffic between internal subnets.
