Your organization has onboarded dozens of Cloud SQL, Spanner, and Bigtable instances from multiple projects into Database Center. The dashboard shows a new Data protection finding with Severity Level 1 (lowest severity). Which configuration is most likely to have generated this low-severity alert?
A Spanner database that has an additional read-only replica in two regions.
A Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL instance that has automated backups disabled.
A Bigtable instance encrypted with a customer-managed key (CMEK) stored in the same region as the data.
A Cloud SQL instance that uses a public IP address but restricts access to a few authorized networks.
Database Center assigns Severity Level 1 to configurations that need attention but do not represent an immediate threat to data durability. Disabling automated backups on a Cloud SQL instance fits this category because the instance could be restored only from manual exports, so Database Center recommends enabling backups but does not mark the issue as Critical.
The other configurations either relate to networking (public IP with authorized networks), availability best practices in Spanner, or encryption in Bigtable, none of which produce a Level 1 data-protection finding.
