Google Cloud Professional Cloud Security Engineer — Question 201

Your company is in a regulated industry that requires low overhead encryption using private connectivity from on-premises data centers to Google Cloud. You need to establish connectivity and ensure high availability across multiple regions. What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Set up two pairs of HA VPNs using IPSec from the data centers in multiple regions.
• B. Set up pairs of Cloud Interconnect connections to your data centers in multiple regions, and employ MACSec encryption.
• C. Set up L2TP encryption over pairs of dedicated Cloud Interconnect connections from the data centers in multiple regions.
• D. Set up IPSec encryption over Partner Interconnect connections from your data centers in multiple regions.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because it utilizes Cloud Interconnect, which provides reliable, high-bandwidth connections with low latency while also allowing for MACSec encryption, meeting the required standards. Options A and D involve VPNs and Partner Interconnect, which may not provide the same level of performance or regulatory compliance, while option C does not align with the requirement for high availability and is less optimal for the scenario.
