Agreed, those two options seem the most comprehensive. The Confidential VMs in options B and D are a bit overkill, in my opinion.

Hmm, I'm thinking options C and E are the way to go. Configuring Cloud External Key Manager and Customer Managed Encryption Keys seem like the best way to meet all the requirements.
