  3. Run each tier in its own subnet, and use subnet-based firewall rules.
  4. Run each tier with its own VM tags, and use tag-based firewall rules.

For compliance reasons, an organization needs to ensure that in-scope PCI Kubernetes Pods reside on "in- scope" Nodes only. These Nodes can only contain the "in-scope" Pods.

How should the organization achieve this objective?

  1. Add a nodeSelector field to the pod configuration to only use the Nodes labeled inscope: true.
  2. Create a node pool with the label inscope: true and a Pod Security Policy that only allows the Pods to run on Nodes with that label.
  3. Place a taint on the Nodes with the label inscope: true and effect NoSchedule and a toleration to match in the Pod configuration.
  4. Run all in-scope Pods in the namespace "in-scope-pci".

Answer(s): C



In an effort for your company messaging app to comply with FIPS 140-2, a decision was made to use GCP compute and network services. The messaging app architecture includes a Managed Instance Group (MIG) that controls a cluster of Compute Engine instances. The instances use Local SSDs for data caching and UDP for instance-to-instance communications. The app development team is willing to make any changes necessary to comply with the standard.

Which options should you recommend to meet the requirements?

  1. Encrypt all cache storage and VM-to-VM communication using the BoringCrypto module.
  2. Set Disk Encryption on the Instance Template used by the MIG to customer-managed key and use BoringSSL for all data transit between instances.
  3. Change the app instance-to-instance communications from UDP to TCP and enable BoringSSL on clients' TLS connections.
  4. Set Disk Encryption on the Instance Template used by the MIG to Google-managed Key and use BoringSSL library on all instance-to-instance communications.

Answer(s): A



A customer has an analytics workload running on Compute Engine that should have limited internet access.

Your team created an egress firewall rule to deny (priority 1000) all traffic to the internet.

The Compute Engine instances now need to reach out to the public repository to get security updates.

What should your team do?

  1. Create an egress firewall rule to allow traffic to the CIDR range of the repository with a priority greater than 1000.
  2. Create an egress firewall rule to allow traffic to the CIDR range of the repository with a priority less than 1000.
  3. Create an egress firewall rule to allow traffic to the hostname of the repository with a priority greater than 1000.
  4. Create an egress firewall rule to allow traffic to the hostname of the repository with a priority less than 1000.

Answer(s): B
