Google Cloud Professional Cloud Security Engineer PCSE — Question 235

You are setting up a new Cloud Storage bucket in your environment that is encrypted with a customer managed encryption key (CMEK). The CMEK is stored in Cloud Key Management Service (KMS), in project “prj-a”, and the Cloud Storage bucket will use project “prj-b”. The key is backed by a Cloud Hardware Security Module (HSM) and resides in the region europe-west3. Your storage bucket will be located in the region europe-west1. When you create the bucket, you cannot access the key, and you need to troubleshoot why. What has caused the access issue?
