AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 Practice Question
In the context of cloud computing models, what does the concept of a 'shared responsibility' entail for the deployment of applications and infrastructure services?
The cloud service provider secures the computing hardware and services, whereas the customer is accountable for their data, applications, and use of services.
The cloud service provider is responsible for securing customer data, applications, and access controls.
Both the cloud service provider and the customer share equal responsibility for all aspects of security, including physical, network, and application domains.
The customer oversees the physical hardware and facilities, while the cloud service provider ensures the security of applications and data.
The concept of 'shared responsibility' within a cloud computing model entails that the cloud service provider is accountable for the security of the computing infrastructure, including data centers, hardware, and foundational cloud services. Conversely, the customer is in charge of security measures that pertain to their own data, applications, and other assets operating within the cloud infrastructure. This question focuses on the critical understanding that while the provider ensures a secure infrastructure foundation, the customer must take responsibility for aspects of security that are within their control, such as data encryption, access controls, and application security.
