Example question from this objective
Each option is explained, so the reasoning behind the distractors is part of the answer.
A team grants a developer only the permissions needed to deploy Cloud Run services in one project. Which IAM principle is being applied?
- Billing-only inheritance.
- Open access by default.
- Unbounded owner access.
- Principle of least privilege.
Billing-only inheritance. — Billing inheritance does not describe IAM permissions needed to deploy Cloud Run services.
Open access by default. — Open access by default would grant broad permissions and conflicts with secure IAM practice.
Unbounded owner access. — Owner access is broad and usually excessive for a developer who only deploys one type of service.
Principle of least privilege. — Least privilege means granting only the permissions required for the user's job and scope.
