Practice question 230 of 498 · medium

Azure and AWS teams need one set of security principles with implementation guidance adapted to each platform. Which foundation should they use?

Choose the single best answer.

  1. A.CIS Benchmarks for each individual cloud platform
  2. B.Microsoft Cloud Security Benchmark
  3. C.ISO/IEC 27001 management-system requirements
  4. D.NIST Cybersecurity Framework implementation tiers
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

  • Microsoft Cloud Security Benchmark

MCSB directly provides shared cloud security principles with platform-specific implementation guidance. CIS Benchmarks are useful platform-specific hardening standards, but are not the requested Microsoft cloud-neutral foundation. NIST CSF supports risk-management outcomes, and ISO/IEC 27001 defines management-system requirements rather than detailed Azure and AWS implementation controls.
