The correct answer is A. Use service perimeter and create an access level based on the authorized source IP address as. VPC Service Controls allow you to build a security perimeter around GCP resources like BigQuery. Access levels within that perimeter can enforce IP-based conditions, meaning only requests originating from authorized IP ranges can reach the BigQuery APIs - even if valid…

Explanation
VPC Service Controls allow you to build a security perimeter around GCP resources like BigQuery. Access levels within that perimeter can enforce IP-based conditions, meaning only requests originating from authorized IP ranges can reach the BigQuery APIs - even if valid credentials are used from an unauthorized network. This prevents both unauthorized access and data exfiltration. Option B (Google Cloud Armor) protects HTTP load balancer endpoints and cannot restrict direct BigQuery API calls. Options C and D (organization policy constraints) govern which services or APIs can be used within an org, but do not enforce IP-based access restrictions at the API level for specific datasets.
