I think A is better option.One of the primary benefits of using Google Cloud Storage is that it stores geographically dispersed copies of data to prevent data loss. This means that even if one copy of the data is lost or corrupted, other copies stored in different locations can be used to recover the data.
A: It stores geographically dispersed copies of data to prevent loss.
Cloud Storage is ideal for an international law firm needing to share and access sensitive data securely across branch offices. Its benefits include:
- Geographic redundancy: Cloud Storage automatically replicates data across multiple locations, ensuring high availability and preventing data loss due to localized failures.
- Data security: It includes built-in encryption for sensitive data, both at rest and in transit.
- Scalability: It allows the firm to handle varying amounts of data without worrying about storage limits.
B: is wrong. Data encryption is built-in with Cloud Storage, and there’s no need for an "affordable upgrade."
B might be technically correct but the answer they are looking for is A. There is a reason they word things the way they do. The keyword there is international.
A. It stores geographically dispersed copies of data to prevent loss.
One of the key benefits of Cloud Storage is that it stores geographically dispersed copies of data to prevent loss. This is important for an international law firm that needs to be able to share and access varying amounts of sensitive data across their branch offices.
By default - Cloud Storage encrypts data at no additional cost (Cloud Storage always encrypts your data on the server side, before it is written to disk, at no additional charge. - https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/encryption/). This sorts out the sensitive data requirement of the HR company.
Data Loss is minimised by having geographically dispersed copies.
Answer B is possible but not required unless the customer wants key storage (HSM units) to secure/manage their cryptographic keys for an additional fee....
Verified Answer = B
Explanation:
1. Data encryption: Cloud Storage uses server-side encryption to encrypt your data by default. You can also use supplemental data encryption options.
Refer- https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/introduction#securing_your_data
2. Cloud Storage always encrypts your data on the server side, before it is written to disk, at no additional charge. Besides this there are additional ways to encrypt your data when using Cloud Storage.

3. If you need more control over key operations than what Google-managed encryption keys allows, you can use customer-managed encryption keys.
3. If you need more control over key operations than what Google-managed encryption keys allows, you can use customer-managed encryption keys. These keys are created and managed using Cloud Key Management Service (Cloud KMS), and you store the keys as software keys, in an HSM cluster, or externally.

I don't like B as the answer here. Data is always encrypted. Encryption is not part of an "affordable upgrade". Only other answer that made sense to me is C.
