I think in the context of the CISSP, the CISO generally reports to the CIO. So in this case, the CIO primarily needs to work with the CISO. The next logical step is that the CISO would work with the information owners to properly protect the data

I'd say B. It says primary obligation, not about hierarchy or sth. You can do this move without the CISO. Can you do it without the information owner? You are moving the information to cloud. owners are responsible with these information. You are obliged to do with this personnel. Sorry, dear ciso.

C. The question asks for protection of data "The CISO's responsibilities include developing, implementing, and enforcing security policies to protect critical data. " https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/security/what-is-ciso.html

Although many CISOs report to the CIO, that organizational structure is now considered to be a conflict of interest. More and more Fortune 500 companies have made the CISO coequal with the CIO. In these companies the CISO may report to the chief technology officer (CTO), the chief security officer (CSO), the chief risk officer (CRO), or even the chief operating officer (COO) or chief executive officer (CEO). CISO reporting to CIO is now likely seen as a conflict of interest. The owner of the data still has a responsibility to ensure proper protection of the data that they own.

Information Owner (or Data Owner) they own the data and usually the CIO report to them. While CISO reports to CIO. ! In my opinion, for the CIO to ensure the proper protection for the data, he should understand what is the protection requirement from the data owner first.
