Question
In the shared responsibility model for an Azure deployment, what is Microsoft solely responsible for managing?
- A. the management of mobile devices
- B. the permissions for the user data stored in Azure
- C. the creation and management of user accounts
- D. the management of the physical hardware Correct
Explanation
In the shared responsibility model, the cloud provider is always responsible for the physical datacenter, physical network, and physical hosts in every service model (IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS). The customer always remains responsible for its data, devices (including mobile devices), and accounts and identities, which include creating user accounts and setting permissions on data. So Microsoft is solely responsible for managing the physical hardware.
