The correct answer is D. Activate Identity-Aware Proxy (IAP) on the Application Load Balancer backend. Assign the role of IAP-secured Web App User to the group of privileged users. Here's why: IAP for Authentication and Authorization: IAP provides a centralized way to control access to your Cloud Run service, ensuring that only authenticated users can reach it. It integrates seamlessly with Cloud Identity for user management and supports single sign-on (SSO) for a smooth user experience. Role-Based Access Control: By assigning the IAP-secured Web App User role to the group of privileged users, you can precisely control who has access to the application.
