The CCSP certification is targeted towards professionals working in cloud security, including IT and information security professionals, cloud architects, cloud engineers, and security consultants. To be eligible for the CCSP exam, candidates must have a minimum of five years of IT experience, with at least three years of experience in information security and one year of experience in cloud computing. Alternatively, candidates with a bachelor’s degree in a related field can substitute one year of experience.

Few points you should know about the CCSP exam:

It is a computerized test which you will take in a secluded room with a proctor. You have to schedule your CCSP exam at least three working days in advance. CCSP Dumps recommends that you should review the types of questions that could appear on the test beforehand. Study for the entire 4 hours, because it is graded pass/fail. No breaks, but you can leave when your timer goes off. Show up 15 minutes before the scheduled exam and verify your identity. Bring an ID and a printout of the confirmation email. Do not bring anything else to the testing center, even if you are sure it is allowed. The testing center is locked off from the rest of the office space. Dress professionally and have comfortable shoes, so you can walk around for 4 hours straight. You can bring a snack or drink into the testing center, but not a phone or anything electronic. When your test begins, log in with your barcode and PIN. When you log in, you will go through an orientation with a series of tutorials. You can skip the orientation if you know what to do, and it will not count against your time. You should take a screenshot of the login window with your notes entered before starting. The clock starts with your click of Begin Test. The testing program is time-sensitive and will not wait for you to finish reading a question. If you make a mistake typing in your answers, answer the question that shows up instead of re-typing your answer. You will be timed by the testing program, but you can time yourself down to the second. You must answer all questions in a section within 33 minutes before you can move to the next section. Furthermore, you will use the keyboard rather than a pencil, so get comfortable! There are periodic breaks throughout the test where you will be given 2 to 5 minutes after every 60 minutes. The entire test is 4 hours long, and you must stay for the full-time period or your marks will not count. 10% of your overall scores are root in handwriting, with no option for automation. You will receive pass/fail scores from the testing program immediately after you finish. The CCSP certification’s validity is for three years. You have to renew it before the deadline of years. For the renewal of the CCSP certificate, candidates must get 90 CPE credits (For each year of the renewal cycle, 30 CPE credits are essential) before the certification expires. CPE is called Continuing professional education. We can earn CPE (Continuing professional education) by attending seminars and workshops, Webinars, and on-demand courses.

Q275. Which of the cloud deployment models offers the easiest initial setup and access for the cloud customer?

 Hybrid

 Community

 Private

 Public

Because the public cloud model is available to everyone, in most instances all a customer will need to do to gain access is set up an account and provide a credit card number through the service’s web portal. No additional contract negotiations, agreements, or specific group memberships are typically needed to get started.

 Increased enforcement of separation of duties for all workflows

Q280. Which of the following is NOT a focus or consideration of an internal audit?

 Certification

 Design

 Costs

 Operational efficiency

In order to obtain and comply with certifications, independent external audits must be performed and satisfied.
Although some testing of certification controls can be part of an internal audit, they will not satisfy requirements.

Q281. Which of the following is the optimal temperature for a data center, per the guidelines established by the America Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)?

 69.8-86.0degF (21-30degC)

 64.4-80.6degF(18-27degC)

 51.8-66.2degF(11-19degC)

 44.6-60-8degF(7-16degC)

The guidelines from ASHRAE establish 64.4-80.6degF (18-27degC) as the optimal temperature for a data center.

Q282. Firewalls can detect attack traffic by using all these methods except ____________.
Response:

 Known past behavior in the environment

 Identity of the malicious user

 Point of origination

 Signature matching

Q283. Which aspect of archiving must be tested regularly for the duration of retention requirements?

 Availability

 Recoverability

 Auditability

 Portability

Explanation
In order for any archiving system to be deemed useful and compliant, regular tests must be performed to ensure the data can still be recovered and accessible, should it ever be needed, for the duration of the retention requirements.

Q284. Maintenance mode requires all of these actions except:

 Remove all active production instances

 Ensure logging continues

 Initiate enhanced security controls

 Prevent new logins

While the other answers are all steps in moving from normal operations to maintenance mode, we do not necessarily initiate any enhanced security controls.

Q285. DLP solutions can aid in deterring loss due to which of the following?

 Inadvertent disclosure

 Natural disaster

 Randomization

 Device failure

Explanation
DLP solutions may protect against inadvertent disclosure. Randomization is a technique for obscuring data, not a risk to data. DLP tools will not protect against risks from natural disasters, or against impacts due to device failure.

Q286. Which ISO/IEC standards set documents the cloud definitions for staffing and official roles?
Response:

 ISO/IEC 27001

 ISO/IEC 17788

 A superset of the ONF

 A stand-alone framework for storing security practices for the ONF

 The complete ONF

 A subnet of the ONF

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Remember, there is a one-to-many ratio of ONF to ANF; each organization has one ONF and many ANFs (one for each application in the organization). Therefore, the ANF is a subset of the ONF.

Q289. What controls the formatting and security settings of a volume storage system within a cloud environment?

 Management plane

 SAN host controller

 Hypervisor

 Operating system of the host

Explanation
Once a storage LUN is allocated to a virtual machine, the operating system of that virtual machine will format, manage, and control the file system and security of the data on that LUN.

Q290. Which of the following tasks within a SaaS environment would NOT be something the cloud customer would be responsible for?

 Authentication mechanism

 Branding

 Training

 User access

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The authentication mechanisms and implementations are the responsibility of the cloud provider because they are core components of the application platform and service. Within a SaaS implementation, the cloud customer will provision user access, deploy branding to the application interface (typically), and provide or procure training for its users.

Q291. Which of the following involves assigning an opaque value to sensitive data fields to protect confidentiality?
Response:

 Obfuscation

 Masking

 Tokenization

 Anonymization

Q292. What is a serious complication an organization faces from the compliance perspective with international operations?

 Multiple jurisdictions

 Different certifications

 Different operational procedures

 Different capabilities

When operating within a global framework, a security professional runs into a multitude of jurisdictions and requirements, which often may not be clearly applicable or may be in contention with each other. These requirements can involve the location of the users and the type of data they enter into systems, the laws governing the organization that owns the application and any regulatory requirements they may have, and finally the appropriate laws and regulations for the jurisdiction housing the IT resources and where the data is actually stored, which may be multiple jurisdictions as well. Different certifications would not come into play as a challenge because the major IT and data center certifications are international and would apply to any cloud provider. Different capabilities and different operational procedures would be mitigated by the organization’s selection of a cloud provider and would not be a challenge if an appropriate provider was chosen, regardless of location.

Q293. Which of the following may unilaterally deem a cloud hosting model inappropriate for a system or application?

 Multitenancy

 Certification

 Regulation

 Virtualization

Some regulations may require specific security controls or certifications be used for hosting certain types of data or functions, and in some circumstances they may be requirements that are unable to be met by any cloud provider.

Q294. Modern web service systems are designed for high availability and resiliency. Which concept pertains to the ability to detect problems within a system, environment, or application and programmatically invoke redundant systems or processes for mitigation?

 Elasticity

 Redundancy

 Fault tolerance

 Automation

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
Fault tolerance allows a system to continue functioning, even with degraded performance, if portions of it fail or degrade, without the entire system or service being taken down. It can detect problems within a service and invoke compensating systems or functions to keep functionality going. Although redundancy is similar to fault tolerance, it is more focused on having additional copies of systems available, either active or passive, that can take up services if one system goes down. Elasticity pertains to the ability of a system to resize to meet demands, but it is not focused on system failures. Automation, and its role in maintaining large systems with minimal intervention, is not directly related to fault tolerance.
