Which of the following areas of responsibility would be shared between the cloud customer and cloud provider within the Software as a Service (SaaS) category?
Suggested Answer:C🗳️
With SaaS, the application is a shared responsibility between the cloud provider and cloud customer. Although the cloud provider is responsible for deploying, maintaining, and securing the application, the cloud customer does carry some responsibility for the configuration of users and options. Regardless of the cloud service category used, the physical environment is always the sole responsibility of the cloud provider. With all cloud service categories, the data and governance are always the sole responsibility of the cloud customer.
In a Software as a Service (SaaS) model, governance is a shared responsibility between the cloud provider and the cloud customer. Governance includes compliance, security policies, and risk management to ensure that the service meets business and regulatory requirements.
Why Not the Others?
A. Data → The cloud customer is primarily responsible for securing and managing their own data (e.g., access control, encryption, compliance).
C. Application → The cloud provider fully manages the application, including maintenance, security, and updates. The customer only uses it.
D. Physical → The cloud provider is solely responsible for the physical infrastructure, including data centers, hardware, and networking.
This is an odd question. You are responsible for data you add to a SaaS solution and you're responsible for the governance around who gets what permissions.
the question didnt ask what the customer is responsible for. it asked what is a SHARED responsibility between the customer and provider. in a saas the provider is not responsible for the data you put in, or how you govern the SaaS application
