Question

Your organization's Customers must scan and upload the contract and their driver license into a web portal in Cloud Storage. You must remove all personally identifiable information (PII) from files that are older than 12 months. Also, you must archive the anonymized files for retention purposes. What should you do?

Explanation

Cloud Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is the purpose-built Google Cloud service for detecting and de-identifying PII. You can create a DLP inspection and de-identification job that scans Cloud Storage objects, targets files older than 12 months (filtered by creation date), redacts or masks PII fields, and writes the anonymized output to an archive bucket. Option A (TTL) simply deletes files, it does not de-identify them. Option C (Autoclass) automatically transitions files between storage classes for cost optimization - it has no PII-removal capability. Option D (KMS key rotation) re-encrypts data with a new key but does not remove PII from the content.
