Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

When employees use personal mobile devices to access a VPN, the greatest concern for an IS auditor is the potential for sensitive data to be stored in an unsecured manner. If data is stored in plain text, it could be easily accessed by unauthorized parties if the device is lost, stolen, or compromised. This risk is heightened when the devices are not managed by the organization's IT department, which would typically enforce security policies such as encryption.

Of course the answer is C - Measured service! We wouldn't want our customers to accidentally over-provision and get hit with a hefty cloud bill, now would we?

Hmm, I'm torn between B and C. Maybe I should just ask Alexa for the answer. She's got to be more reliable than my cloudy memory.

Resource pooling? Nah, that's more about the shared infrastructure, not the billing model. I'm going with C - Measured service. Gotta love those itemized cloud invoices!

Elasticity, for sure! Being able to scale resources up and down on demand is the whole point of the cloud, right? I can already hear the cloud sales pitch in my head.
