Selected Answer: B
It is B, especially if the company wants to move to a cloud forward approach AND there's no IT. CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker) can provide that security and group policy enforcement, making a smooth transition to the cloud process. Also because when in doubt, CASB out because if CASB is in the answer choices, it's most likely gonna be CASB. I haven't been wrong yet.

Selected Answer: B
Shadow IT is the use of IT-related hardware or software by a department or individual without the knowledge of the IT or security group within the organization. e.g Employees using personal cloud storage services (e.g., Dropbox, Google Drive) to store and share work-related files. Or Employees (BYOD) to work and connecting them to the corporate network without IT knowledge etc. While shadow IT can offer agility and flexibility for individual users or departments, it also presents several risks and challenges for organizations, e.g. it may lack adequate security controls, leaving sensitive data vulnerable to breaches or leaks. etc To mitigate the risks, organizations should implement strategies such as establishing clear IT policies, providing alternative approved solutions, conducting employee training on cybersecurity best practices, and deploying technology solutions like Cloud Access Security Brokers (CASBs) to monitor and control cloud usage.

Selected Answer: B
B. Deploying an appropriate in-line CASB solution To address the risks associated with shadow IT services in a cloud-first environment, deploying a Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) solution is a suitable approach. CASB solutions provide visibility and control over the use of cloud services, helping organizations monitor and manage the use of cloud applications to ensure compliance and security.
