Description
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.
Duration
2 days, instructor-led2 weeks, on-demand
Objectives:
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
