Exam Security-Operations-Engineer Topic 2 Question 119 Discussion

Actual exam question for Google's Security-Operations-Engineer exam
Question #: 119
Topic #: 2
You are implementing Google Security Operations (SecOps) with multiple log sources. You want to closely monitor the health of the ingestion pipeline's forwarders and collection agents, and detect silent sources within five minutes. What should you do?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

The best solution is to create a Cloud Monitoring notification with a metric-absence condition for each collector_id. A metric-absence alert triggers when expected ingestion metrics are missing within a defined period (e.g., five minutes), which quickly identifies silent sources or failed collectors. This provides near real-time detection of ingestion health issues in the SecOps pipeline.
