Born in the Cloud
Google's security model involves all layers and is based on over 15 years of experience in the Cloud. Google protects customer data, email folders, Google search and other Google applications. The Google Cloud Platform ensures that applications and data can take advantage of this same security model, keeping all information in a virtually impenetrable and closed network for as long as possible.
Security precautions
When it comes to protecting their own data, companies take this issue very seriously - and that's a good thing. The misconception that Onprem servers can offer the same level of protection as the major Cloud service providers is still widespread today. However, Cloud security has been a big issue for a long time and providers, such as Google Cloud, have already built the most secure fortresses with certain precautions. At Google Cloud, security precautions include:
- Secure global network
- Detection of attacks
- Compliance and certifications
- Data encryption
- Site reliability engineering teams monitor the operation of platform systems
- Secured service APIs and authenticated access
- Logging
