Company Overview -
JencoMart is a global retailer with over 10,000 stores in 16 countries. The stores carry a range of goods, such as groceries, tires, and jewelry. One of the companyג€™s core values is excellent customer service. In addition, they recently introduced an environmental policy to reduce their carbon output by 50% over the next 5 years.
Company Background -
JencoMart started as a general store in 1931, and has grown into one of the worldג€™s leading brands, known for great value and customer service. Over time, the company transitioned from only physical stores to a stores and online hybrid model, with 25% of sales online. Currently, JencoMart has little presence in Asia, but considers that market key for future growth.

As a large, global company, we also have a responsibility to the environment through ג€greenג€ initiatives and policies.
CTO Statement -
The challenges of operating data centers prevent focus on key technologies critical to our long-term success. Migrating our data services to a public cloud infrastructure will allow us to focus on big data and machine learning to improve our service to customers.
CFO Statement -
Since its founding, JencoMart has invested heavily in our data services infrastructure. However, because of changing market trends, we need to outsource our infrastructure to ensure our long-term success. This model will allow us to respond to increasing customer demand during peak periods and reduce costs.
The JencoMart security team requires that all Google Cloud Platform infrastructure is deployed using a least privilege model with separation of duties for administration between production and development resources.
What Google domain and project structure should you recommend?
- A. Create two G Suite accounts to manage users: one for development/test/staging and one for production. Each account should contain one project for every application
- B. Create two G Suite accounts to manage users: one with a single project for all development applications and one with a single project for all production applications
- C. Create a single G Suite account to manage users with each stage of each application in its own project
- D. Create a single G Suite account to manage users with one project for the development/test/staging environment and one project for the production environment
Answer : D
Explanation:
Note: The principle of least privilege and separation of duties are concepts that, although semantically different, are intrinsically related from the standpoint of security. The intent behind both is to prevent people from having higher privilege levels than they actually need
✑ Principle of Least Privilege: Users should only have the least amount of privileges required to perform their job and no more. This reduces authorization exploitation by limiting access to resources such as targets, jobs, or monitoring templates for which they are not authorized.
✑ Separation of Duties: Beyond limiting user privilege level, you also limit user duties, or the specific jobs they can perform. No user should be given responsibility for more than one related function. This limits the ability of a user to perform a malicious action and then cover up that action.

A few days after JencoMart migrates the user credentials database to Google Cloud Platform and shuts down the old server, the new database server stops responding to SSH connections. It is still serving database requests to the application servers correctly.
What three steps should you take to diagnose the problem? (Choose three.)
- A. Delete the virtual machine (VM) and disks and create a new one
- B. Delete the instance, attach the disk to a new VM, and investigate
- C. Take a snapshot of the disk and connect to a new machine to investigate
- D. Check inbound firewall rules for the network the machine is connected to
- E. Connect the machine to another network with very simple firewall rules and investigate
- F. Print the Serial Console output for the instance for troubleshooting, activate the interactive console, and investigate
Answer : CDF
Explanation:
D: Handling "Unable to connect on port 22" error message
Possible causes include:
✑ There is no firewall rule allowing SSH access on the port. SSH access on port 22 is enabled on all Compute Engine instances by default. If you have disabled access, SSH from the Browser will not work. If you run sshd on a port other than 22, you need to enable the access to that port with a custom firewall rule.
✑ The firewall rule allowing SSH access is enabled, but is not configured to allow connections from GCP Console services. Source IP addresses for browser- based SSH sessions are dynamically allocated by GCP Console and can vary from session to session.
F: Handling "Could not connect, retrying..." error
You can verify that the daemon is running by navigating to the serial console output page and looking for output lines prefixed with the accounts-from-metadata: string. If you are using a standard image but you do not see these output prefixes in the serial console output, the daemon might be stopped. Reboot the instance to restart the daemon.

JencoMart has decided to migrate user profile storage to Google Cloud Datastore and the application servers to Google Compute Engine (GCE). During the migration, the existing infrastructure will need access to Datastore to upload the data.
What service account key-management strategy should you recommend?
- A. Provision service account keys for the on-premises infrastructure and for the GCE virtual machines (VMs)
- B. Authenticate the on-premises infrastructure with a user account and provision service account keys for the VMs
- C. Provision service account keys for the on-premises infrastructure and use Google Cloud Platform (GCP) managed keys for the VMs
- D. Deploy a custom authentication service on GCE/Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) for the on-premises infrastructure and use GCP managed keys for the VMs
Answer : C
Explanation:
Migrating data to Google Cloud Platform
Letג€™s say that you have some data processing that happens on another cloud provider and you want to transfer the processed data to Google Cloud Platform. You can use a service account from the virtual machines on the external cloud to push the data to Google Cloud Platform. To do this, you must create and download a service account key when you create the service account and then use that key from the external process to call the Cloud Platform APIs.
