Explanation

Cloudlock is Cisco's Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) solution, purpose-built to discover shadow IT, assess risk of third-party cloud apps connected to the corporate environment, and revoke unauthorized OAuth connections - making it the direct fit for this question.

Umbrella is Cisco's DNS-layer security product that blocks malicious internet destinations before a connection is established; it focuses on DNS/web traffic, not cloud app governance.

Cognitive Threat Analytics uses machine learning to detect compromised credentials and insider threats by analyzing web traffic patterns - it's a detection engine, not a cloud app control tool.

Investigate (Cisco Threat Intelligence) is a research and threat hunting platform for analysts to query indicators of compromise; it doesn't manage or block cloud app connections.

Memory tip: Think "Lock out the cloud" - CloudLock = locking down cloud apps. The "Cloud" in the name is the giveaway that it governs cloud application access, while the other options handle DNS (Umbrella), behavioral analytics (Cognitive Threat Analytics), and threat research (Investigate).
