Which of the following provides the underlying components to run a data center on
a public cloud?
PaaS
SaaS
IaaS
Private Cloud - ✔✔✔ANSWER-IaaS
,Which of the following virtualizes parts of a physical network?
a. SDV
b. SDA
c. SDX
d. SDN - ✔✔✔ANSWER-d. SDN
A cloud firewall solution examines packet headers to allow or deny traffic based on
IP addresses and port numbers. To which layer of the OSI model does the type of
firewall apply?
A. 2
B. 3
C. 4
D. 7 - ✔✔✔ANSWER-C. 4
---
C. Layer 4, the transport layer of the seven-layer conceptual OSI model, focuses on
transporting data either reliably (TCP) or unreliably but more quickly (UDP).
Network service port numbers are also called layer 4 addresses;
IP addresses are layer 3 (the network layer) addresses. A packet-filtering firewall
can examine packet headers containing addressing information, but not the packet
payload containing the data being transmitted.
A private medical practice hires you to determine the feasibility of cloud
computing, whereby storage of e-mail and medical applications, as well as patient
, information, would be hosted by a public cloud provider. You are asked to identify
potential problems related to sensitive data regulatory compliance. (Choose two.)
A. Data is stored on the cloud provider's infrastructure, which is shared by other
cloud tenants.
B. HTTPS will be used to access remote services.
C. Should the provider be served a subpoena, the possibility of full data disclosure
exists.
D. Data will be encrypted in transit as well as when stored. - ✔✔✔ANSWER-A.
Data is stored on the cloud provider's infrastructure, which is shared by other cloud
tenants.
C. Should the provider be served a subpoena, the possibility of full data disclosure
exists.
---
A and C. Sharing the same cloud computing services with other customers could
be forbidden by sensitive data regulations, although cloud tenant data is not
accessible by other cloud tenants. Depending on the provider's geographic location,
different laws may apply to whether data hosted by the provider can legally be
disclosed. However, that's not a risk many organizations are willing to take.
Adrian is working on a project in a refinery. He must deploy IoT devices that will
