Security in Google Cloud

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

Objetivos

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
