Selected Answer: A
Automation is a crucial aspect of cloud computing that relies heavily on APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) to manage provisioning, scaling, and orchestration of cloud resources. Insecure APIs can be exploited by attackers to manipulate cloud services, disrupt automation workflows, or gain unauthorized access to cloud environments. Why Not the Others? B. Resource Pooling: Insecure APIs might expose shared resources, but they do not inherently compromise the ability to pool resources. C. Elasticity: APIs help manage elasticity, but insecure APIs do not directly prevent resources from scaling up/down. D. Redundancy: Cloud redundancy (e.g., multi-region failover) is typically built into infrastructure, making it less dependent on API security.
