Public cloud
- B
Private cloud
- C
Hybrid cloud
- D
Community cloud
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The private cloud model is best suited for organizations that require full control over their infrastructure and need to adhere to strict compliance and data residency regulations. This model ensures that sensitive data remains secure and under the company's management, which aligns with the requirements in this scenario.
- A. Incorrect.
Public cloud is not suitable for this scenario because it is managed by a third-party provider, and the company does not have full control over the infrastructure. Additionally, it may not fully guarantee compliance with strict data residency laws.
- B. Correct.
Private cloud is the most appropriate option as it allows the company to maintain full control over the infrastructure, ensuring compliance with data residency laws and providing the security needed for processing sensitive customer data.
- C. Incorrect.
Hybrid cloud may provide a mix of private and public cloud benefits, but in this scenario, the strict compliance and control requirements indicate that a fully private solution is more suitable.
- D. Incorrect.
Community cloud is designed for organizations with shared concerns or compliance requirements, but it is not as tailored to providing full control to a single organization as needed in this scenario.
