What is a key advantage of using Policy-Based Access Control (PBAC) for cloud-based access management?

  1. PBAC eliminates the need for defining and managing user roles and permissions.
  2. PBAC is easier to implement and manage compared to Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
  3. PBAC allows enforcement of granular, context-aware security policies using multiple attributes.
  4. PBAC ensures that access policies are consistent across all cloud providers and platforms.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

PBAC enables highly specific access control based on multiple attributes, enhancing flexibility and security in cloud environments.

How does serverless computing impact infrastructure management responsibility?

  1. Requires extensive on-premises infrastructure
  2. Shifts more responsibility to cloud service providers
  3. Increases workload for developers
  4. Eliminates need for cloud service providers

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Serverless computing shifts infrastructure management responsibility to the CSP, allowing customers to focus on application logic rather than infrastructure.
