Exam CS0-002 topic 1 question 103 discussion

A VPN is a technology that provides secure and encrypted communication between two networks over an unsecured network such as the internet. It can be used to connect remote users or networks to the corporate network securely. In this case, the development team needs access to servers in all three tiers of the cloud environment, and a VPN can provide secure transport for the team to access these servers. Option B, VPC (Virtual Private Cloud), is a cloud computing technology that enables users to create a private cloud within a public cloud environment. While VPCs can be used to create secure networks within a cloud environment, they do not provide secure transport for accessing servers in a cloud environment from a corporate network.

D. VPN

secure transport is VPN. VPC is basically your data centers in the cloud

VPCs create a private network within a public cloud environment, VPNs offer secure access to those resources remotely,

VPC is just a term to describe, that you can set up virtual switches, PCs, NIcs etc, which are seperated from the rest of a public cloud. VPC does not define the meaning of how one is connection to it. So D is the only correct answer.

A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) allows you to virtually create a private and isolated network in the cloud. Just as a virtual private network (VPN) provides secure data transfer over the public Internet, a VPC provides secure data transfer between a private enterprise and a public cloud provider.

If you want to connect an on-premise network with a cloud environment then you will need a VPN first. A VPC is to move between one tier to another one.

I taked from book; A virtual private cloud (VPC) is an example of infrastructure as a service (IaaS). VPC lets you provision virtual servers and appliances within a virtual network hosted on a public cloud. It allows to create subnet. I going with VPC. I think; people use to VPN for more general reasons. If i am wrong, can you discuss me?

openAI spent a lot of time considering this question.A Virtual Private Network (VPN) would be the best technology for the security analyst to implement to provide secure transport for the development team. A VPN creates an encrypted connection between the corporate network and the cloud environment, allowing the developers to access servers in all three tiers securely. This protects the sensitive data and network traffic from unauthorized access or eavesdropping. The VPN uses tunneling protocols, such as IPsec or SSL, to encrypt the traffic and authenticate the users. The analyst can configure the VPN to enforce access controls and restrict the developers to only the resources they need, providing an additional layer of security. By using a VPN, the analyst can ensure that the development team has secure and controlled access to the cloud environment, protecting both the corporate network and the cloud environment from potential threats.

Wee bit tricky this one but from the wording of the question it suggests connecting from an on-prem environment "secure connectivity from the corporate network to a three-tier cloud environment. " If you were pivoting around in the Cloud then VPC. Here is a good link and the reason I'd go with VPN https://docs.aws.amazon.com/whitepapers/latest/security-best-practices-for-manufacturing-ot/secure-network-connection-to-the-cloud.html

As someone with a Google Cloud Professional Architect Certification, the answer should be D, as the question is about providing "the development team with secure connectivity from the corporate network to a three-tier cloud environment". If we want to connect on-prem to the cloud we should use a VPN connection, not a VPC. In this scenario, a VPC would be used for the connection between the different cloud components and between the three tiers, but as I read it the question is asking for secure transport between on-prem and cloud.

Answer is C. You pass in Azure with VPN, but VPC is logical divisions. You set rule to access in VPC.

Answer is C: A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) allows you to virtually create a private and isolated network in the cloud. Just as a virtual private network (VPN) provides secure data transfer over the public Internet, a VPC provides secure data transfer between a private enterprise and a public cloud provider. This ensures that each customer's data remains isolated from other customer's data, both in transit and inside the cloud provider's network. This isolation can be accomplished using security policies that require some – or all – of the following elements: private IP addressing, tunneling, encryption, or allocating a unique VLAN to each customer.

Answer is D. Google Cloud VPN.

A VPC typically exists on a private subnet and may have additional security to ensure that intersystem communications remain secure.

B - VPC typically exists on a private subnet and may have additional security to ensure that intersystem communications remain secure.

Emerging answer, VPC is correct! - B
