Hardened systems were emphasized in my notes, so I believe those are also part of the protection strategy.

I practiced a similar question where configuration management was highlighted as essential, so I think that one is a countermeasure too.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like background checks might not directly protect cloud operations from external attackers.
