QuestionQ100

Application Security and Cloud Computing

You work at a multinational company named Vector Inc. on hypervisors and virtualization software. You use operating system (OS) virtualization and must address the security risks associated with OS virtualization. How can you mitigate these security risks?

Choose two
  • A Implement least privilege access control for users managing VMs.
  • B Disable security features on virtual machines to improve performance.
  • C Regularly patch and update the hypervisor software for security fixes.
  • D All of the above
Explanation

Least-privilege access control limits VM-management permissions to only those required, reducing the risk of privilege misuse or unauthorized changes. Keeping the hypervisor software patched and updated remediates known security vulnerabilities. Disabling VM security features reduces protection rather than mitigating risk.
