CCSP Exam - Question 463


All of the following are techniques to enhance the portability of cloud data, in order to minimize the potential of vendor lock-in except:

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

Using DRM (Digital Rights Management) and DLP (Data Loss Prevention) solutions widely throughout the cloud operation would actually decrease portability instead of enhancing it. DRM typically involves encryption and other access controls that can complicate data transfer, while DLP focuses on preventing data from leaving a secure environment, making it harder to migrate between cloud providers. Therefore, these techniques do not enhance the portability of cloud data and do not minimize the potential of vendor lock-in.

Portability in cloud computing refers to the ability to easily move data, applications, and workloads from one cloud provider to another without excessive restrictions. Digital Rights Management (DRM) and Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions, while useful for security, can actually hinder portability by restricting how data is accessed, copied, or transferred. Techniques to Enhance Cloud Portability: A. Ensure there are no physical limitations to moving → Prevents storage or network constraints from limiting data migration. C. Ensure favorable contract terms to support portability → Contracts should include exit strategies and data extraction clauses. D. Avoid proprietary data formats → Using open, standardized formats makes migration easier and reduces vendor lock-in.
