Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect PCA — Topic 1 Question 76

Question

Your company pushes batches of sensitive transaction data from its application server VMs to Cloud Pub/Sub for processing and storage. What is the Google- recommended way for your application to authenticate to the required Google Cloud services?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: A. The correct answer is A. Option A: Ensure that VM service accounts are granted the appropriate Cloud Pub/Sub IAM roles. Pub/Sub is a serverless, global messaging service that decouples services and ingests high-volume event streams. A service account provides an identity for workloads to access Google Cloud APIs securely. Cloud IAM grants fine-grained, least-privilege access to Google Cloud resources.
