In an IaaS model, to which of the following methodologies would the client apply a list of OS patches, assuming approval from CAB has been given?

The correct answer is A. Using a patch management system, identify the hypervisor type, select a group of hypervisors to. In specific IaaS bare-metal scenarios, a client may be responsible for patching the hypervisor's operating system if they have installed and manage their own virtualization layer.

Why each option

In specific IaaS bare-metal scenarios, a client may be responsible for patching the hypervisor's operating system if they have installed and manage their own virtualization layer.

AUsing a patch management system, identify the hypervisor type, select a group of hypervisors toCorrect

In some advanced IaaS implementations, particularly those utilizing bare-metal cloud servers where the client installs and manages their own hypervisor, the client would be responsible for applying OS patches to these hypervisors. A patch management system would be used to identify and update these specific hypervisor instances.

BUsing a patch management system, identify the guests that require patching, and select and

In a standard IaaS model where the client consumes virtual machines, patching the guest operating systems is the client's responsibility, but if the focus is on patching the hypervisor, then this option describes patching the VMs running on it, not the hypervisor itself.

CUsing a patch management system, identify the applications needing the patch, select the

OS patches are applied to the operating system, not directly to individual applications running within the operating system.

DUsing a patch management system, identify the services that require patching, and select and

OS patches target the core operating system components, not individual services running within the OS.
