What practice will not help incident responders eradicate Google Kubernetes Engine security incidents?

  1. Enable data encryption for transit

  2. Disable encryption for data at rest

  3. Employ least privilege access

  4. Apply regular security patches

The correct answer is: Disable encryption for data at rest

Disabling encryption for data at rest does not enhance security; in fact, it weakens it. When data at rest is not encrypted, it becomes more vulnerable to unauthorized access and potential breaches. Strong security practices involve safeguarding sensitive information, and encryption is a key method to protect data even when it is stored. Implementing encryption for data at rest ensures that even if an attacker gains access to the storage, they cannot easily interpret the data without the encryption keys. In contrast, the other practices mentioned—enabling data encryption for transit, employing least privilege access, and applying regular security patches—actively contribute to strengthening the overall security posture of systems utilizing Google Kubernetes Engine. These practices mitigate risks and respond effectively to security incidents.
