Cloud Digital Leader Exam - Question 219


When is data automatically encrypted in Google Cloud?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

In Google Cloud, data is automatically encrypted both at rest and in transit. This means that any data stored on disk in Google Cloud services, such as Google Cloud Storage and Compute Engine, is encrypted before being written to disk and decrypted when accessed. Additionally, data moving between user devices and Google data centers, as well as data moving within Google's network between data centers, is also encrypted. This encryption ensures the security of sensitive information both when it is stored and when it is transmitted over the internet.

B: Automatic Encryption in Google Cloud: Google Cloud automatically encrypts data both when it is at rest and in transit. This means that: At Rest: Data stored on disk in Google Cloud services, including but not limited to Google Cloud Storage, Compute Engine, and BigQuery, is encrypted before it is written to disk and decrypted when accessed. In Transit: Data moving between user devices and Google data centers, as well as data moving within Google's network between data centers, is encrypted. This encryption protects data as it travels over the internet, ensuring that sensitive information is securely transmitted.
