Google Cloud Professional Cloud Security Engineer Tests 2023

Prepare for the Google Cloud Professional Cloud Security Engineer Certification Exam with our comprehensive practice exams. Written and reviewed by multiple Google Cloud experts, these exams mimic the actual certification exam in terms of structure, syllabus, topic weights, cut score, and time duration.

Sample questions:

Q1: Which international compliance standard provides guidelines for information security controls applicable to the provision and use of cloud services?

A: ISO 27001

B: ISO 27002

C: ISO 27017

D: ISO 27018

Answer: The ISO/IEC 27017:2015 gives guidelines for information security controls applicable to the provision and use of cloud services by providing:

– Additional implementation guidance for relevant controls specified in ISO/IEC 27002

– Additional controls with implementation guidance that specifically relate to cloud services

ISO 27001 outlines and provides the requirements for an information security management system (ISMS), specifies a set of best practices, and details the security controls that can help manage information risks but it‘s not specific to cloud. ISO 27002 is related to security controls to implement ISO 27001 and ISO 27018 relates to one of the most critical components of cloud privacy: the protection of personally identifiable information (PII).

Q2: An organization is evaluating the use of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) for certain IT workloads. A well-established directory service is used to manage user identities and lifecycle management. This directory service must continue for the organization to use as the “source of truth” directory for identities. Which solution meets the organization‘s requirements?

A: Google Cloud Directory Sync (GCDS)

B: Cloud Identity

C: Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML)

D: Pub/Sub

Answer: Option D is not correct as Cloud pub/sub is an asynchronous messaging service that decouples services that produce events from services that process events and not a way of federating a directory service with GCP. Option B is also incorrect as Cloud Identity is an Identity as a Service (IDaaS) solution that centrally manages users and groups, and here you need a way to federate identities with the current directory service. Option C is not correct because SAML is the official way to delegate the authentication to the directory service by using the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocol but you first need to create and synchronize identities in GCP. Option A is the correct answer, as GCDS is one of the ways you can federate identities in GCP.

Q3: A customer terminates an engineer and needs to make sure the engineer‘s Google account is automatically deprovisioned. What should the customer do?

A: Use the Cloud SDK with their directory service to remove their IAM permissions in Cloud Identity.

B: Use the Cloud SDK with their directory service to provision and deprovision users from Cloud Identity.

C: Configure Cloud Directory Sync with their directory service to provision and deprovision users from Cloud Identity.

D: Configure Cloud Directory Sync with their directory service to remove their IAM permissions in Cloud Identity.

Answer: Option A and B are not correct as they are manual options and not executed automatically. Option D is not a valid option as it would only remove IAM permissions but won‘t deprovision the account. Option C is correct as in this case we need to use Cloud Directory Sync so all changes performed in the directory service are automatically replicated to Cloud identity, so when an engineer leaves the company his/her account is automatically removed blocking all access to GCP resources.
