Correct answer: SSL Proxy Load Balancer.
Why this is the answer
The SSL Proxy Load Balancer is the correct choice because it is designed for SSL-encrypted non-HTTP(S) traffic, such as the TCP traffic on port 443 described. It offers global load balancing, terminating SSL at the edge of Google's network to minimize latency for global clients. The HTTPS Load Balancer is for HTTP(S) traffic, not generic TCP. The Network Load Balancer is a regional pass-through load balancer that doesn't terminate SSL, making it less optimal for global SSL traffic requiring latency reduction. The Internal TCP/UDP Load Balancer is for internal traffic within a VPC network, not external global client traffic.
