Selected Answer: D ❌ A. Cyber threats posing as authorized entities This describes phishing or impersonation attacks, not specifically a cloud data breach. ❌ B. Exploitation of cloud application access While obtaining unauthorized access to a cloud application can be a method used in a breach, it does not define the breach itself (which is the actual leakage of private data). ❌ C. Deprivation of computing resources This refers to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack, which disrupts access to cloud services but does not involve a data breach.

Selected Answer: D For me, the keyword here is breach. B isn't enough for me to say breached other access and exploitation. D answers the words 'data breach' so private information has already been extracted.
B 1
Selected Answer: B True, answer B.

no reference, nothing. I would argue that both B and D are correct. And I couldnt find any Cisco resources to specifically describe what a CLOUD data breach is. if anyone can find something, please let us know

Selected Answer: D no reference
D 1
Selected Answer: D Although exploiting cloud access can be a way to breach data, it is not the breach itself. A breach specifically means the exposure of private data.
B 1
Selected Answer: B This is a Cisco test. Cisco uses keywords in the question to point you to the answer. The question specifically asks about Cloud Data Breeches and B is unique to that.

Both B and D are correct. In lack of a better idea - I will go for the answer mentioning Cloud as in the Question itself - B.

Selected Answer: D Data Breach means leakage of private/confidential information B is wrong because a cloud application access exploitation wont cause a data breach, by itself. Exploiting a vulnerable SSH version, for example, to gain remote access to a system does not mean a data breach
