Explanation
For highly sensitive medical data (likely subject to HIPAA or similar regulations), a private, dedicated network connection is required to avoid traversing the public internet. Dedicated Interconnect provides a direct physical connection between your partner's network and Google's network, ensuring data never touches the public internet and delivering high-bandwidth (10 Gbps or 100 Gbps circuits). Partner Interconnect (B) involves a third-party service provider in the data path, which introduces additional parties into the chain of custody for sensitive medical data. Cloud VPN (D) encrypts traffic but still routes it over the public internet, which may not meet strict medical data compliance requirements. A public IP (E) is entirely insecure for sensitive data.
