Question

Your company acquired a healthcare startup and must retain its customers' medical information for up to 4 more years, depending on when it was created. Your corporate policy is to securely retain this data, and then delete it as soon as regulations allow. Which approach should you take?

Options

  • AStore the data in Google Drive and manually delete records as they expire.
  • BAnonymize the data using the Cloud Data Loss Prevention API and store it indefinitely.
  • CStore the data using the Cloud Storage and use lifecycle management to delete files when they
  • DStore the data in Cloud Storage and run a nightly batch script that deletes all expired data.

Explanation

Noteworthy if you are moving PHI from an on-prem source into cloud storage bucket, the object creation date recorded is the current date and not the original creation date as seen in on-prem source. To port original creation date you could script a function to write to the object metadata field called "Custom time" which is referenced in object lifecycle rules. So to delete objects up to 4 years, you add an object lifecycle rule specifying the following form Action = "Delete object" Object conditions = select ""Days since custom time" checkbox and specify 1460 days.
