    GCP PCA · Question 41 · Design a solution infrastructure that meets technical requirements

    You are designing a CI/CD pipeline using Cloud Build. You want to ensure that container images are only deployed to GKE if they have been scanned for vulnerabilities and signed by a trusted authority. Which THREE GCP services are required to implement this? (Select THREE)

    Answer options:

    A.

    Artifact Registry.

    B.

    Binary Authorization.

    C.

    Cloud KMS.

    D.

    Cloud Data Loss Prevention (DLP).

    E.

    VPC Service Controls.

    F.

    Secret Manager.

    How to approach this question

    Identify the services for storing containers, signing them, and enforcing deployment policies.

    Full Answer

    Artifact Registry., Binary Authorization., Cloud KMS.
    To secure a software supply chain on GCP: 1) Artifact Registry stores the images and runs vulnerability scans. 2) If the scan passes, a CI/CD tool uses a key from Cloud KMS to create a cryptographic signature (attestation). 3) Binary Authorization is configured on the GKE cluster to verify that signature before allowing the pod to start.

    Common mistakes

    Missing Cloud KMS, which is required to generate the asymmetric keys used for the Binary Authorization attestations.
