Difficulty: EasyCloud Architecture and Deployment Models

A consortium of regional financial institutions establishes a shared cloud infrastructure to process payment transactions while meeting common regulatory compliance standards. Which of the following characteristics accurately describe this cloud deployment model? (Select TWO.)

  1. Infrastructure is shared exclusively among organizations that have shared security and compliance mandates.Answer
  2. Costs and operational governance duties are distributed across participating member entities.Answer
  3. C
    The cloud service provider takes full responsibility for internal data classification and user role assignments.
  4. D
    Network communication between connected member organizations is inherently trusted without requiring session authentication.

Answer

The community cloud deployment model features infrastructure shared exclusively among organizations with common security requirements, with costs and administrative duties distributed across member entities.
A community cloud model is implemented when multiple organizations share common security objectives, regulatory compliance needs, or operational goals. The infrastructure is provisioned strictly for the participating members, allowing them to split capital expenses and administrative responsibilities.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the cloud deployment model described in the scenario.
A cloud environment shared exclusively by organizations with common regulatory mandates describes a community cloud.
Community clouds target specific multi-organizational groups sharing common security, regulatory, or operational requirements.
2
Determine the accurate properties of a community cloud.
Access is restricted to participating organizations, and management costs and responsibilities are shared among the member entities.
By pooling resources, members achieve cost efficiencies while maintaining tailored control boundaries.
3
Evaluate distractors against cloud responsibility and security architecture boundaries.
Customer organizations retain data governance responsibilities, and Zero Trust requirements dictate that internal member traffic cannot be implicitly trusted.
Deployment model classification does not shift customer data governance duties to providers nor remove microsegmentation and authentication controls.
