GCP Professional Cloud Security Engineer Practice Question
In your organization-level logging strategy, the security team mandates that every API call that deletes or modifies Cloud SQL instances must be logged centrally for incident investigations. Budget constraints forbid enabling any high-volume, chargeable logs. Which action ensures that the required events are captured and routed to the centralized log bucket without incurring additional logging fees?
Rely on the default Admin Activity audit logs and create an organization-level log sink filtering for Cloud SQL Admin Activity entries.
Enable Cloud Asset Inventory feeds and configure real-time export to BigQuery.
Turn on Cloud SQL maintenance events and export them via Pub/Sub to the SIEM.
Enable Cloud SQL Data Access audit logs and create a project-level sink to export them.
Admin Activity audit logs are written automatically for all Google Cloud services and record configuration-changing API calls such as the creation, update, or deletion of Cloud SQL instances. These logs are always on and their ingestion does not generate charges. By creating an organization-level log sink that filters for the Cloud SQL Admin Activity log entries, the events can be forwarded to the central log bucket without turning on any additional, billable log types. Enabling Data Access logs, Asset Inventory feeds, or maintenance events would either incur extra logging fees or fail to capture every configuration-changing API call.
