Exam CCSP topic 1 question 332 discussion

Multitenancy is a key characteristic of cloud computing where multiple customers (tenants) share the same physical infrastructure while keeping their data logically separate. This increases the importance of data classification to ensure that sensitive data is properly identified, protected, and separated from other tenants. 🔹 Why Data Classification is Critical in a Multitenant Cloud? Prevents unauthorized access → Ensures proper access controls and encryption based on data sensitivity. Meets compliance requirements → Helps organizations comply with regulations (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS) by applying appropriate protections. Supports data residency and sovereignty → Classifies data for storage in specific geographic locations if required.
