Security in Google Cloud

This course gives participants broad study of security controls and techniques on Google Cloud Platform. Through lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on labs, participants explore and deploy the components of a secure Google Cloud solution. Participants also learn mitigation techniques for attacks at many points in a Google Cloud-based infrastructure, including Distributed Denial-of-Service attacks, phishing attacks, and threats involving content classification and use.

This course teaches participants the following skills:  

  • Understanding the Google approach to security Managing administrative identities using Cloud Identity.
  • Implementing least privilege administrative access using Google Cloud Resource Manager, Cloud IAM.
  • Implementing IP traffic controls using VPC firewalls and Cloud Armor Implementing Identity Aware Proxy Analyzing changes to the configuration or metadata of resources with GCP audit logs Scanning for and redact sensitive data with the Data Loss Prevention API Scanning a GCP deployment with Forseti Remediating important types of vulnerabilities, especially in public access to data and VMs
