[All Associate Data Practitioner Questions]

You are a data analyst working with sensitive customer data in BigQuery. You need to ensure that only authorized personnel within your organization can query this data, while following the principle of least privilege. What should you do?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Using IAM roles to enable access control in BigQuery is the best approach to ensure that only authorized personnel can query the sensitive customer data. IAM allows you to define granular permissions at the project, dataset, or table level, ensuring that users have only the access they need in accordance with the principle of least privilege. For example, you can assign roles like roles/bigquery.dataViewer to allow read-only access or roles/bigquery.dataEditor for more advanced permissions. This approach provides centralized and manageable access control, which is critical for protecting sensitive data.

But what about option B) Encrypt the data by using customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK)? Wouldn't that add an extra layer of security?

I'm torn between A and B. Encryption is also important for protecting customer data, but access control should be the priority here.
