Question 1 of 10
1. Question
Which of the following statements regarding risk transfer is not true?
Correct
It is possible for the cloud customer to transfer risk to the cloud provider and the risks should be considered against the cost benefit received from the services. However not all risks can be transferred: if a risk leads to the failure of a business, serious damage to reputation or legal implications, it is hard or impossible for any other party to compensate for this damage.

Question 3 of 10
3. Question
How will you ensure that you have provided sufficient encryption protection to your data in the cloud?
Correct
Ensure that you are protecting your data as it moves to the cloud. This necessitates understanding your provider’s data migration mechanisms, as leveraging provider mechanisms is often more secure and cost effective than “manual” data transfer methods.
Use the appropriate encryption option based on the threat model for your data, business, and technical requirements.

Question 4 of 10
4. Question
How can web security as a service be offered to the cloud customer?
Correct
Web Security (Web Security Gateways) Web Security involves real-time protection, offered either on-premise through software and/or appliance installation, or via the Cloud by proxying or redirecting web traffic to the cloud provider (or a hybrid of both). This provides an added layer of protection on top of other protection, such as anti-malware software to prevent malware from entering the enterprise via activities such as web browsing. In addition, it can also enforce policy rules around types of web access and the time frames when they are allowed. Application authorization management can provide an extra level of granular and contextual security enforcement for web applications.

Question 5 of 10
5. Question
Which of the following is among the top security benefits?
Correct
More timely, effective and efficient updates and default is amongst one of the TOP SECURITY BENEFITS.
MORE TIMELY, EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT UPDATES AND DEFAULTS: default virtual machine images and software modules used by customers can be pre-hardened and updated with the latest patches and security settings according to fine-tuned processes; IaaS cloud service APIs also allow snapshots of virtual infrastructure to be taken regularly and compared with a baseline. Updates can be rolled out many times more rapidly across a homogenous platform than in traditional client-based systems that rely on the patching model.

Question 7 of 10
7. Question
In which type of environment it is impractical to allow clients to conduct their own audits?
Correct
Multi-tenant environment.
Forensics: Bit-by-bit imaging of a cloud data source is generally difficult or impossible. For obvious security reasons, providers are reluctant to allow access to their hardware, particularly in a multitenant environment where a client could gain access to other clients’ data. Even in a private cloud, forensics may be extremely difficult, and clients may need to notify opposing counsel or the courts of these limitations. Luckily, this type of forensic analysis is rarely warranted in cloud computing, because the environment often consists of a structured data hierarchy or virtualization that does not provide significant additional relevant information in a bit-by-bit analysis.

Question 8 of 10
8. Question
Which of the following is not one of the benefits of Cloud Computing?
Correct
Vendor Lock-in could be a disadvantage of Cloud Computing.
Cloud computing offers tremendous potential benefits in agility, resiliency, and economy.
Organizations can move faster (since they don’t have to purchase and provision hardware, and everything is software defined), reduce downtime (thanks to inherent elasticity and other cloud characteristics), and save money (due to reduced capital expenses and better demand and capacity matching).
We also see security benefits since cloud providers have significant economic incentives to protect customers.

Question 9 of 10
9. Question
Which of the following statement is true for orchestration?
Correct
Orchestration is done (and automation) to coordinate carving out and delivering a set of resources from the pools to the consumers.
The key techniques to create a cloud are abstraction and orchestration. We abstract (abstraction) the resources from the underlying physical infrastructure to create our pools, and use orchestration (and automation) to coordinate carving out and delivering a set of resources from the pools to the consumers. As you will see, these two techniques create all the essential characteristics we use to define something as a “cloud.”
The difference between cloud computing and traditional virtualization; virtualization abstracts resources, but it typically lacks the orchestration to pool them together and deliver them to customers on demand, instead relying on manual processes.
Segregation allows the cloud provider to divvy up resources to the different groups, and isolation ensures they can’t see or modify each other’s assets

Question 10 of 10
10. Question
Which communication method is used by customers to access database information using a web console?
Correct
The customer manages the database via API (and a web console) and accesses it either through the normal database network protocols, or, again, via API.
One option, frequently seen in the real world is to build a platform on top of IaaS. A layer of integration and middleware is built on IaaS, then pooled together, orchestrated, and exposed to customers using APIs as PaaS. For example, a Database as a Service could be built by deploying modified database management system software on instances running in IaaS. The customer manages the database via API (and a web console) and accesses it either through the normal database network protocols, or, again, via API.

What is the Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK V4 Exam Questions)?
The CCSK is a web-based examination of an individual’s competency in key cloud security issues. Launched in 2010, the CCSK is a widely recognized standard of expertise and is the industry’s primary benchmark for measuring cloud security skillsets. The CCSK was recently lauded as the most valuable IT certification in terms of average salary by Certification Magazine.
Who should consider obtaining the CCSK?
The CCSK is intended to provide understanding of security issues and best practices over a broad range of cloud computing domains. As cloud computing is becoming the dominant IT system, CCSK is applicable to a wide variety of IT and information security jobs in virtually every organization. The CCSK is strongly recommended for IT auditors, and it is even required for portions of the CSA Security, Trust & Assurance Registry (STAR) program.
Is the CCSK a viable substitute for other industry certifications?
The CCSK is NOT a substitute for other certifications in information security, audit and governance. Many certification programs help personal development within specific professional roles and job duties, and also provide vetting of individuals, which the CCSK does not do. The CCSK augments these other credentialing programs by encouraging a competency in cloud computing security best practices, which we believe will help individuals better cope with the increasingly pervasive cloud computing issues they are now facing. The Cloud Security Alliance is a strong supporter of popular professional certification programs within our industry and looks forward to developing formalized relationships with these programs in the future.
Does the CCSK have industry support?
The CCSK in strongly supported by a broad coalition of experts and organizations from around the world. Since its launch in 2010, the CCSK has been adopted around the world and is the gold standard for demonstration of cloud security competency. The collaboration with ENISA means that the world’s two leading organizations for vendor neutral cloud security research are providing the foundation for the industry’s first cloud security certification.
What is the latest version of the CCSK examination?
How do I take the CCSK exam?
You can take the exam by completing the following steps:
- Prepare for the exam through self-study or by participating in a CCSK training.
- Register at the CCSK exam website.
- Purchase a CCSK exam token (unless one was provided in your training package).
Why can’t I see the correct answers once I have completed the exam?
In an effort to maintain the integrity of the CCSK exam the platform is designed to avoid giving out the answers to specific questions. In order to assist those that do not pass the test to study for future attempts the exam platform will provide the user with the number of questions asked from each domain and how many questions were answered correctly in each of the domains.
Is the exam timed? How many questions? Is it open book?
The exam is 90 minutes with 60 questions. As it is a timed test and some questions can be lengthy, it is recommended that you rely as little as possible on study materials.
Do I need to schedule a testing date or find a testing facility?
No, the exam is online. You can register here: CCSK Account Signup
