Prerequisites
To get the most from this course, you should already have a basic understanding of Google Cloud Platform.
Welcome to “Designing a GCP Security Infrastructure”. I’m Guy Hummel, and I’m a certified Google Cloud Architect.
To get the most from this course, you should already have a good understanding of Google Cloud Platform components.
We’re going to use a case study as an example of how to apply enterprise security principles to a design. We’ll cover how to authenticate and give permissions to people as well as to applications (using service accounts), how to encrypt your data, and how to comply with a rigorous security standard like PCI DSS.
If you’re ready to learn how to create an enterprise-class security architecture for your GCP infrastructure, then let’s get started.
Guy launched his first training website in 1995 and he's been helping people learn IT technologies ever since. He has been a sysadmin, instructor, sales engineer, IT manager, and entrepreneur. In his most recent venture, he founded and led a cloud-based training infrastructure company that provided virtual labs for some of the largest software vendors in the world. Guy’s passion is making complex technology easy to understand. His activities outside of work have included riding an elephant and skydiving (although not at the same time).
