Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/firewalls#service-accounts-vs-tags

https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/firewalls#service-accounts-vs-tags

A service account represents an identity associated with an instance. Only one service account can be associated with an instance. You control access to the service account by controlling the grant of the Service Account User role for other IAM principals. For an IAM principal to start an instance by using a service account, that principal must have the Service Account User role to at least use that service account and appropriate permissions to create instances (for example, having the Compute Engine Instance Admin role to the project).

You are setting up a CI/CD pipeline to deploy containerized applications to your production clusters on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). You need to prevent containers with known vulnerabilities from being deployed. You have the following requirements for your solution:

Must be cloud-native

Must be cost-efficient

Minimize operational overhead

How should you accomplish this? (Choose two.)

Create a Cloud Build pipeline that will monitor changes to your container templates in a Cloud Source Repositories repository. Add a step to analyze Container Analysis results before allowing the build to continue.

In your CI/CD pipeline, add an attestation on your container image when no vulnerabilities have been found. Use a Binary Authorization policy to block deployments of containers with no attestation in your cluster.
Suggested answer: A, E

Explanation:

https://cloud.google.com/container-analysis/docs/container-analysis

Container Analysis is a service that provides vulnerability scanning and metadata storage for containers. The scanning service performs vulnerability scans on images in Container Registry and Artifact Registry, then stores the resulting metadata and makes it available for consumption through an API.

https://cloud.google.com/binary-authorization/docs/attestations

After a container image is built, an attestation can be created to affirm that a required activity was performed on the image such as a regression test, vulnerability scan, or other test. The attestation is created by signing the image's unique digest.

During deployment, instead of repeating the activities, Binary Authorization verifies the attestations using an attestor. If all of the attestations for an image are verified, Binary Authorization allows the image to be deployed.

You want to prevent users from accidentally deleting a Shared VPC host project. Which organization-level policy constraint should you enable?

compute.restrictSharedVpcHostProjects
compute.restrictSharedVpcHostProjects
compute.restrictXpnProjectLienRemoval
compute.restrictXpnProjectLienRemoval
compute.restrictSharedVpcSubnetworks
compute.restrictSharedVpcSubnetworks
compute.sharedReservationsOwnerProjects
compute.sharedReservationsOwnerProjects
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

https://cloud.google.com/resource-manager/docs/organization-policy/org-policy-constraints#constraints-for-specific-services

- constraints/compute.restrictXpnProjectLienRemoval

- Restrict shared VPC project lien removal

This boolean constraint restricts the set of users that can remove a Shared VPC host project lien without organization-level permission where this constraint is set to True.

By default, any user with the permission to update liens can remove a Shared VPC host project lien. Enforcing this constraint requires that permission be granted at the organization level.

You are a security administrator at your company. Per Google-recommended best practices, you implemented the domain restricted sharing organization policy to allow only required domains to access your projects. An engineering team is now reporting that users at an external partner outside your organization domain cannot be granted access to the resources in a project. How should you make an exception for your partner's domain while following the stated best practices?

Turn off the domain restriction sharing organization policy. Set the policy value to 'Allow All.'

Turn off the domain restricted sharing organization policy. Set the policy value to 'Custom.' Add each external partner's Cloud Identity or Google Workspace customer ID as an exception under the organization policy, and then turn the policy back on.
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

https://cloud.google.com/resource-manager/docs/organization-policy/restricting-domains#setting_the_organization_policy

The domain restriction constraint is a type of list constraint. Google Workspace customer IDs can be added and removed from the allowed_values list of a domain restriction constraint. The domain restriction constraint does not support denying values, and an organization policy can't be saved with IDs in the denied_values list. All domains associated with a Google Workspace account listed in the allowed_values will be allowed by the organization policy. All other domains will be denied by the organization policy.
