I'm a little confused by the options here. Hashing and numeric don't seem like they're relevant to the question. I'm going to eliminate those and focus on trying to remember the difference between symmetric and asymmetric encryption.

Okay, I've got this. The first step is to create a Recovery Services vault to enable backup and restore of the session hosts. That will give me the ability to fail over to the US West region if needed.

Okay, I think I've got this. The requirements call for regional data processing in europe-west1 and australia-southeast1, so I'll need to make sure the security appliance is properly configured to handle traffic from those regions.
