A security engineer is evaluating a hybrid cloud architecture. The organization stores sensitive data in its on-premises data center and uses public cloud services for less-sensitive workloads. Which data protection concern is MOST significant for this architecture?

Question

Accepted Answer

B. Data may traverse insecure network paths between on-premises and cloud environments, requiring encryption in transit. In hybrid cloud architectures, data moves between on-premises environments and public cloud services. This data in transit traverses potentially insecure network paths and must be protected with strong encryption (e.g., TLS, IPsec VPN) to prevent interception. This is a core data protection consideration in the SY0-701 security architecture domain.
