Security Cloud

Google protects over 4 billion users every day. When you work on Google Cloud , your infrastructure benefits from that same investment in security. We ensure it is correctly configured for your business.

Why is Google Cloud different when it comes to security?

Google invests more than $10 billion a year in security. The infrastructure that protects Gmail , Google Search, and YouTube is the same one that protects your GCP environment:

Encryption by default

All data at rest and in transit is automatically encrypted. No extra configuration, no additional cost. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit.

Global private network

Your data travels over Google's private network—the same fiber that connects its data centers. It does not pass through the public internet. Lower latency, greater security.

Titan Security Keys

Custom security hardware in every Google server. Titan chips verify the integrity of the hardware and firmware at every boot.

Mandiant Threat Intelligence

Google acquired Mandiant (a global leader in cyber intelligence). Its threat intelligence powers Chronicle SIEM and Security Command Center to detect advanced attacks.

Our cloud security approach

Security is not a one-off project—it is an ongoing process. We cover the 5 layers:

Security posture audit

We evaluate your current configuration: excessive IAM permissions, open firewall rules, exposed APIs , and unencrypted data. We provide a report with prioritized risks and an action plan.

Security Command Center (SCC)

A centralized dashboard that detects vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, threats, and compliance gaps in real time. We activate it, configure alerts, and show you how to use it.

Chronicle SIEM + SOAR

Google's SIEM analyzes petabytes of security logs without performance degradation. Unlike Splunk or Elastic, Chronicle does not charge based on the volume of ingested data—you can analyze everything without filtering for cost. SOAR automates incident response.

IAM and Zero Trust with BeyondCorp

Least privilege for all permissions. BeyondCorp Enterprise replaces your traditional VPN: conditional access based on identity, device, and context. Every request is verified—nothing is trusted by default.

Regulatory compliance

We help you comply with GDPR , ENS (National Security Scheme), ISO 27001, and HIPAA. We utilize Organization Policies, VPC Service Controls, Cloud DLP for sensitive data, and Access Transparency to audit who accesses what.

Chronicle SIEM vs. alternatives

Chronicle (Google)

No charges based on data volume. Scales to petabytes. Integrated Mandiant AI. 12-month retention included.

Splunk

Charges per ingested GB. Costs scale rapidly. Requires own infrastructure or Splunk Cloud.

Elastic SIEM

Open source, but requires self-management of the cluster. Manual scaling. No native threat intelligence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Google Cloud is GDPR compliant, has regions in the EU (Madrid, Zurich, Finland) for data residency, and offers specific tools such as Cloud DLP and VPC-SC. Regarding ENS, ACKstorm holds the certification—and TCC helps you implement the necessary technical controls in GCP so that your organization can obtain the certification.

Chronicle is Google's SIEM, built on its internal infrastructure. Since Google has no storage limitations, Chronicle does not charge per ingested GB—it charges a flat fee. This means you can analyze all your logs without filtering for cost, providing security visibility that would be prohibitively expensive with Splunk.

You don't necessarily need your own SOC. We can manage the security of your GCP environment as part of our managed services, covering threat monitoring, IAM reviews, incident response, and regulatory compliance. For companies requiring a dedicated SOC, we implement Chronicle + SOAR to automate detection and response.

BeyondCorp Enterprise is Google's Zero Trust model. Instead of a VPN that grants full network access once connected, BeyondCorp verifies every request in real time: who you are, what device you are using, and where you are connecting from. If your laptop isn't up to date, you don't get access. No VPNs, no concentrators, no bottlenecks.

SCC offers a free Standard tier that covers basic vulnerability detection. The Premium tier (featuring threat detection, compliance, and Web Security Scanner) is billed as a percentage of GCP spend. For most companies, this represents an additional 2–5% on the cloud bill—a minimal cost compared to the risk of a breach.
