    Subtask 3.1: Security DesignNetworkingLoad BalancingInternal HTTP(S) LB

    GCP PCA · Question 28 · Security Design

    You are deploying an internal HR application on Compute Engine. The application uses HTTP and should only be accessible to employees connected to the corporate network via Cloud VPN. Which load balancer should you use?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Global External HTTP(S) Load Balancer

    B.

    Internal TCP/UDP Load Balancer

    C.

    Internal HTTP(S) Load Balancer

    D.

    TCP Proxy Load Balancer

    How to approach this question

    Determine if the traffic is internal or external, and if it requires Layer 4 (TCP/UDP) or Layer 7 (HTTP/S) routing.

    Full Answer

    C.Internal HTTP(S) Load Balancer✓ Correct
    The Internal HTTP(S) Load Balancer is a proxy-based, regional Layer 7 load balancer that enables you to run and scale your services behind a private IP address. It is perfect for internal applications that require HTTP routing but must remain inaccessible from the public internet.

    Common mistakes

    Choosing an external load balancer and trying to secure it with firewall rules, which is less secure than using a purely internal load balancer.
