I think the GFE protections are enough, though.

I practiced a similar question, and I think Cloud Armor is the best option here for testing policies before enforcement.

I feel like the inherent protections of Google Front End could be useful, but I'm not confident if they allow for validation like the others.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about VPC firewall rules being used in monitor mode for validation.

I think Google Cloud Armor's preconfigured rules in preview mode might be the right choice since it allows testing before applying changes.

I'm pretty sure the inherent protections of Google Front End (GFE) are not meant for validating custom web application protection policies, so I'm going to rule that one out.

VPC Service Controls in dry run mode could also be a good choice, but I'm not as familiar with that service. I'll need to research it a bit more to be confident in that answer.

Hmm, the question is asking about validating web application protection, so I'm leaning towards option A. The preconfigured rules in preview mode seem like the most straightforward way to test the changes.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. Is Cloud Load Balancing firewall rules a valid option as well? I'll need to double-check the details on that.

Ah, this is a good one. I remember learning about the Telemetry feature in Prisma Cloud, which provides a graphical view of connections. That seems like the most likely answer here.

Option B is tempting, but I'm a bit worried about the 'monitor mode' part. Seems like a risky move for a public application.

Hmm, I don't know, Option C sounds a bit too good to be true. The inherent protections of GFE might not be enough for our needs.

I'm leaning towards Option E. VPC Service Controls in dry run mode could give us a good idea of how the policies will work without enforcing them yet.
