An organization requires all users to prove their identity before accessing cloud resources, and access must be limited to only the resources necessary for each user's role. Which security capability addresses both requirements?

Question

Accepted Answer

A. Identity and Access Management (IAM) with role-based access control (RBAC). IAM combined with RBAC provides authentication (proving identity) and authorization (restricting access to role-appropriate resources), addressing both requirements simultaneously. The CompTIA Cloud+ V4 Security domain lists IAM as a core security objective for controlling cloud resource access.
