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.

Resource pooling sounds familiar, but I don't see how it connects to charge-per-use. I’m leaning towards C as well.

I practiced a question like this before, and I think on-demand self-service is more about availability than cost.

Ah, I see what they're getting at now. Measured service is the cloud characteristic that allows for optimizing resource utilization through the pay-as-you-go model. I'm feeling good about C as the answer.
QU

Okay, let me think this through. The question is asking about resource utilization and charge-per-use, so that points to Measured service as the answer. I'm going to go with C.

This seems like a straightforward security question. I think the key is to focus on securing the data in transit to the web tier, so I'll likely start by considering options like TLS encryption and web application firewalls.

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!
