You want to simplify access control management by minimizing the number of policies. Which two steps should you take? Choose 2 answers.
- A. Only use service accounts when sharing data for Cloud Storage buckets and BigQuery datasets.
- B. Use Cloud Deployment Manager to automate access provision.
- C. Introduce resource hierarchy to leverage access control policy inheritance.
- D. For each Cloud Storage bucket or BigQuery dataset, decide which projects need acces
- E. Create distinct groups for various teams, and specify groups in Cloud IAM policies.
- F. Find all the active members who have access to these projects, and create a Cloud IAM policy to grant access to all these users.
