ISC2 Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) Practice Question

Your team operates a private IaaS cluster. One host shows periodic performance degradation, and you suspect excessive heat is forcing the CPU to throttle. You already collect CPU and disk statistics from inside each guest OS, but you also need continuous readings for the host's temperature and fan speed without installing any new software on either the hypervisor or the VMs. Which monitoring method best satisfies this requirement?

  • Deploy application performance monitoring (APM) agents within tenant workloads to capture host temperature metrics.

  • Forward hypervisor kernel and system logs to the SIEM and rely on log analysis for thermal events.

  • Install and aggregate SNMP agents inside each guest VM to report hardware sensor readings.

  • Poll the server's baseboard management controller via its IPMI/iLO/iDRAC out-of-band interface for sensor data.
