Selected Answer: A
Cloudborne IaaS Attack Allows Persistent Backdoors in the Cloud A known vulnerability combined with a weakness in bare-metal server reclamation opens the door to powerful, high-impact attacks. An attack scenario affecting various cloud providers could allow an attacker to implant persistent backdoors for data theft into bare-metal cloud servers, which would be able to remain intact as the cloud infrastructure moves from customer to customer. This opens the door to a wide array of attacks on businesses that use infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) offerings.
