Question

Without the extensive funds of a large corporation, a small-sized company could gain considerable and cost-effective services for which of the following concepts by moving to a cloud environment?

Options

  • ARegulatory
  • BSecurity
  • CTesting
  • DDevelopment

Explanation

Cloud providers invest heavily in enterprise-grade security infrastructure, tooling, certifications, and expertise that would be prohibitively expensive for a small organization to replicate on-premises. By moving to a cloud environment, small companies gain access to advanced security controls (firewalls, DDoS protection, encryption, identity management, compliance certifications, 24/7 monitoring) at a fraction of the cost, benefiting from the cloud provider's economies of scale. While cloud also benefits testing and development, security is the most impactful and costly capability that small companies traditionally lack and can most meaningfully gain through cloud adoption.
