QuestionQ164

European Data Processing

Which of the following is NOT generally recognized as a common characteristic of cloud-computing services?

  • A The service’s infrastructure is shared among the supplier’s customers and can be located in a number of countries.
  • B The supplier determines the location, security measures, and service standards applicable to the processing.
  • C The supplier allows customer data to be transferred around the infrastructure according to capacity.
  • D The supplier assumes the vendor’s business risk associated with data processed by the supplier.
Explanation

Cloud services operate under a shared-responsibility model: the provider is responsible for defined aspects of the service, while the customer retains responsibility for its own data, risk decisions, and business impact. A supplier therefore does not ordinarily assume the customer’s business risk associated with data it processes.
