GCP Professional Cloud Security Engineer Practice Question

Your BigQuery table has patient_id, full_name, admission_date, diagnosis_code, and billing_amount. Analysts need the data, but policy says: expose only the first character of full_name; shift admission_date by up to ±30 days, consistently for rows sharing the same patient_id; and keep patient_id in a reversible, format-preserving form so investigators can restore it if needed. Which set of Sensitive Data Protection transformations meets all requirements?

  • Redact full_name entirely, apply an unkeyed ±30-day date-shift to admission_date, and hash patient_id with SHA-256.

  • Replace full_name with a salted SHA-256 hash, date-shift admission_date keyed on patient_id, and mask all but the last four digits of patient_id.

  • Apply character masking to keep only the first character of full_name, use a ±30-day date-shift keyed on patient_id for admission_date, and encrypt patient_id with format-preserving encryption (CryptoReplaceFfxFpe) using a surrogate infoType.

  • Mask full_name to reveal the first letter, deterministically encrypt admission_date, and bucket patient_id into numeric ranges.
