Karen Gillan has recently joined an IT company as a cloud security engineer. Her organization would like to adopt cloud-based services to provide 24 x 7 customer support to its clients. It wants to transfer its customer database and transaction details along with the applications used for managing and supporting its customers.
Before migrating to cloud, which of the following analyses should be performed by Karen on the security capabilities and services provided by cloud service providers to understand the security requirements of the organization and those provided by the cloud service provider?
Before migrating to cloud services, Karen Gillan should perform a Gap Analysis to understand the security requirements of her organization and compare them with the security capabilities and services provided by cloud service providers.
1.Conducting Gap Analysis:
oAssess Current Security Posture: Karen should evaluate the existing security measures, including data security practices, access controls, and incident response plans.
oIdentify Security Requirements: Determine the security requirements for the customer database and transaction details, as well as the applications used for managing and supporting customers.
oCompare with Cloud Provider's Offerings: Review the security capabilities and services offered by the cloud service providers to see if they meet the organization's security requirements.
oIdentify Gaps: Highlight any discrepancies between the organization's security needs and the cloud provider's offerings.
1.Outcome of Gap Analysis: The outcome will be a clear understanding of what security measures are in place, what is lacking, and what the cloud provider can offer. This will guide Karen in making informed decisions about additional security controls or changes needed for a secure cloud migration.

Christina Hendricks recently joined an MNC as a cloud security engineer. Owing to robust provisions for storing an enormous quantity of data, security features, and cost-effective services offered by AWS, her organization migrated its applications and data from an on-premises environment to the AWS cloud. Christina's organization generates structured, unstructured, and semi-structured dat
a. Christina's team leader asked her to store block-level data in AWS storage services. Which of the following AWS storage services should be used by Christina to store block-level data?
Steven Smith has been working as a cloud security engineer in an MNC for the past 4 years. His organization uses AWS cloud-based services. Steven handles a complex application on AWS that has several resources and it is difficult for him to manage these resources. Which of the following AWS services allows Steven to make a set of related AWS resources easily and use or provision them in an orderly manner so that he can spend less time managing resources and more time on the applications that run in the AWS environment?
Jordon Bridges works as a cloud security engineer in a multinational company. His organization uses Google cloud-based services (GC) because Google cloud provides robust security services, better pricing than competitors, improved performance, and redundant backup. Using IAM security configuration, Jordon implemented the principle of least privilege. A GC IAM member could be a Google account, service account, Google group, G Suite, or cloud identity domain with an identity to access Google cloud resources. Which of the following identities is used by GC IAM members to access Google cloud resources?
Stephen Cyrus has been working as a cloud security engineer in an MNC over the past 7 years. The database administration team requested Stephen to configure a server instance that can enhance the performance of their new database server running on Compute Engine. The database is built on MySQL running on Debian Linux and it is used to import and normalize the company's performance statistics. They have an n2-standard-8 virtual machine with 80 GB of SSD zonal persistent disk, which cannot be restarted until the next maintenance event. Which of the following can help Stephen to enhance the performance of this VM quickly and in a cost-effective manner?
To enhance the performance of a MySQL database running on Compute Engine quickly and in a cost-effective manner, Stephen can dynamically resize the SSD persistent disk to 500 GB. Here's why this option is effective:
