CV0-004 Practice Question: Which TWO of the following are best practices for…
Which TWO of the following are best practices for managing cloud storage in a multi-account environment? (Choose two.)
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Implement bucket policies to restrict cross-account access.
Options A and C are correct. Implementing bucket policies to restrict cross-account access (A) ensures that storage resources are isolated and secure in a multi-account environment. Enabling logging and monitoring of all storage operations (C) provides audit trails and helps detect unauthorized access. Option B is incorrect because using separate encryption keys per account is a good security practice but not a top requirement specifically for storage management; access control and monitoring are more critical. Option D is wrong because a single storage bucket for all accounts compromises isolation and increases risk. Option E is incorrect because full public access is insecure and violates the principle of least privilege.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Implement bucket policies to restrict cross-account access.
Why this is correct
Bucket policies allow fine-grained access control between accounts.
- ✗
Use separate encryption keys for each account.
Why it's wrong here
While encryption is important, using separate keys per account is not a primary best practice for storage management; it's more about key management.
- ✓
Enable logging and monitoring of all storage operations.
Why this is correct
Logging provides visibility and helps detect unauthorized access or misconfigurations.
- ✗
Use a single storage bucket/container for all accounts to simplify management.
Why it's wrong here
This lacks isolation and increases security risk; best practice is to segregate by account.
- ✗
Allow full public access to ensure availability.
Why it's wrong here
Public access is a security risk and should be avoided except for specific use cases.
