Course Overview

One small change in cloud security can create a ripple effect across your entire Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environment, strengthening threat resistance, compliance, and efficiency. When you master core areas like Identity and Access Management (IAM), VPC configuration, and workload protection, your security posture shifts from reactive to proactive. Tools such as Cloud IDS, Web Security Scanner, and BeyondCorp Enterprise begin working together as a unified defense system.

This hands-on course teaches you how to architect secure cloud solutions through real-world labs and scenarios. You’ll practice configuring access controls, protecting workloads, and automating threat detection across GCP. Instead of chasing vulnerabilities after attacks, you’ll learn to build systems that are secure by design. From mitigating DDoS threats to managing content vulnerabilities, this training gives you the practical skills to design and deploy secure cloud solutions with confidence.

Course Objectives

By the end of the course, you’ll be able to deploy and manage a secure GCP environment using a wide array of security controls and best practices.

You will learn how to:

Identify the foundations of Google Cloud security
Configure IAM roles and policies for least-privilege access
Secure Compute Engine, Cloud Storage, and Kubernetes workloads
Design secure VPC networks and apply network-level controls
Detect, monitor, and respond to security threats using built-in GCP tools
Prevent and mitigate common vulnerabilities and DDoS attacks
