In the context of Microsoft Azure's shared responsibility model, a healthcare organization is planning to migrate sensitive patient data to the cloud to leverage Azure's capabilities. The organization must ensure that the migration complies with HIPAA regulations, which mandate stringent data protection and privacy measures. Given this scenario, which of the following statements accurately describe the division of responsibilities between Microsoft Azure (the cloud provider) and the healthcare organization (the cloud customer)? Please choose the best two options from the following.
A
Microsoft Azure is responsible for the physical security of the data centers, the infrastructure security, and the host security. The healthcare organization is responsible for configuring the security features provided by Azure, managing access to the data, and ensuring compliance with HIPAA regulations.
B
Microsoft Azure takes full responsibility for all aspects of data security and compliance, including the configuration of security settings and access controls, thus eliminating the healthcare organization's compliance obligations.
C
The healthcare organization is entirely responsible for all aspects of data security and compliance, including the physical security of the data centers, rendering Microsoft Azure's role in the shared responsibility model insignificant.
D
The shared responsibility model is not applicable to healthcare data or HIPAA compliance, as these are exclusively managed by third-party compliance auditors.
E
Microsoft Azure ensures the security of the cloud, including physical, infrastructure, and network security, while the healthcare organization is responsible for security in the cloud, such as data encryption, access management, and compliance with HIPAA regulations.
