Course Description
Overview
This course gives students broad study of security controls and techniques on Google Cloud Platform. Through lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on labs, students explore and deploy the components of a secure Google Cloud solution. Students 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.Objectives
Upon completion of the Security in Google Cloud Platform course, students will be able to:
- 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
