Google Professional Cloud Security Engineer Exam - Topic 4 Question 106 Discussion

Posted by Carmela on Jul 31, 2025 at 04:08 PM

Your organization uses BigQuery to process highly sensitive, structured datasets. Following the "need to know" principle, you need to create the Identity and Access Management (IAM) design to meet the needs of these users:

* Business user must access curated reports.

* Data engineer: must administrate the data lifecycle in the platform.

* Security operator: must review user activity on the data platform.

What should you do?

Suggested Answer: C

This option directly addresses the needs of the business user who must access curated reports. By creating curated tables in a separate dataset, you can control access to specific data. Assigning the roles/bigquery.dataViewer role allows the business user to view the data in BigQuery.

I disagree, D is too restrictive for data engineers.

I think C is the best choice for business users.

Wait, sending CSVs via email? That seems risky!

A and C together could really cover all bases!

Option A sounds solid for security operators.

I'm a bit confused about option D; I know row-based access control is important, but I'm not sure if filtering by region is the right way to handle access for data engineers.
AN
Angella 11 months ago
I feel like option A could be relevant since it mentions configuring data access logs, which we covered in a practice question about monitoring user activity.

I think option C sounds familiar because we practiced creating curated tables and assigning roles, but I can't recall if that's the best approach for security operators.

I remember we discussed the importance of the "need to know" principle in our last study session, but I'm not sure which option best aligns with that.

I've got a strategy in mind. I'll need to set up the necessary permissions and access controls to meet the needs of each user, while also ensuring the "need to know" principle is upheld. Time to put my BigQuery IAM knowledge to the test!

Okay, let's see. I need to create an IAM design that grants the appropriate access for the business user, data engineer, and security operator. I'll need to review the access control options in BigQuery to determine the best approach.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. There are a few options that seem plausible, but I'll need to carefully consider the requirements for each user type.

This question seems straightforward. I think the key is to focus on the different user roles and their access needs.

Wait, we're not supposed to send sensitive data via email? That's news to me! Just kidding, C is the clear winner here.

D sounds interesting, but row-level access control might be overkill for this use case. I'd go with C as well.

Haha, sending the data to their email? That's a security nightmare waiting to happen. C is definitely the way to go here.

A) Configure data access log for BigQuery services, and grant Project Viewer role to security operators.

A is a good start, but I think we need more granular control over who can access the sensitive data. C looks like the best solution to me.

Option C seems like the way to go. Separating the curated data into a dedicated dataset and granting the appropriate roles is a clean and secure approach.
