Google Cloud offers robust security features, including default encryption, DDoS protection, and tools like Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Key Management Service (KMS), to protect data and applications.
Here's a more detailed breakdown of Google Cloud's security approach:
Security by Default:
Encryption:
Google Cloud encrypts data both at rest and in transit, ensuring that only authorized parties can access sensitive information.
DDoS Protection:
Cloud Load Balancing and Cloud Armor provide automatic defense against Layer 3 and Layer 4 DDoS attacks, protecting applications and services from malicious traffic.
Default Configurations:
Services like Compute Engine and Storage are configured to limit public access by default, minimizing potential risks.
