B is clearly the wrong answer. Storing private keys in plaintext on disk? That's just asking for trouble!

Hmm, this question makes me wonder if the exam is testing our cloud security knowledge or our ability to spot trick questions. Either way, I'm keeping my eyes peeled!

I wonder if the 'Alibaba Cloud' part is just a red herring. This could apply to any major cloud provider, really.

I'm not sure, but I think option D could also be correct since keys are loaded into memory only when needed.

I agree with Mike, option A makes the most sense for protecting the private key.

Option A seems the most logical, as cloud providers usually have secure measures in place to protect sensitive data like private keys.
