This course provides foundational knowledge for securing your Google Cloud environment. You will learn Google Cloud's security model, including Zero Trust principles and the Shared Fate model. You will configure identity services like Cloud Identity and Workforce Identity Federation, manage access control using Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles, conditions, and policies, and implement network security controls such as VPCs, Cloud Firewall tiers, and VPC Service Controls to build a secure perimeter. As the foundation of the Security in Google Cloud learning path, this course establishes the core principles required for two subsequent specialized tracks: the five-course Security Best Practices in Google Cloud series and the four-course Mitigate Threats in Google Cloud series.

In this course, you will learn how to architect, secure, and operate a production-ready Google Cloud environment. Moving beyond basic infrastructure deployment, you will utilize Infrastructure as Code modules to untilize best practices and automate the creation of a secure Landing Zone establishing the necessary projects, networks, and IAM hierarchies with consistency and speed. You will ensure operational excellence by defining baseline guardrails, such as quotas and log retention policies, and configuring automated alerts to detect security and configuration violations immediately. Finally, you will implement full-stack observability by creating custom dashboards in Cloud Monitoring and instrumenting your Virtual Machines and applications with Cloud Ops agents and OpenTelemetry. By the end of this course, you will have the skills to build a cloud foundation that is not only secure by default but also fully observable. A skill badge is an exclusive digital badge issued by Google Clo…

The third course in this course series is Achieving Advanced Insights with BigQuery. Here we will build on your growing knowledge of SQL as we dive into advanced functions and how to break apart a complex query into manageable steps. We will cover the internal architecture of BigQuery (column-based sharded storage) and advanced SQL topics like nested and repeated fields through the use of Arrays and Structs. Lastly we will dive into optimizing your queries for performance and how you can secure your data through authorized views. After completing this course, enroll in the Applying Machine Learning to your Data with Google Cloud course.

This quest comprises a series of Challenge and Learning labs aimed at validating your proficiency in setting up a Google Cloud organization for scalable, production-ready, enterprise workloads. Each lab is structured around the Google Cloud setup checklist, which provides administrators with complete control over a company's Google Cloud resources. The checklist comprises 10 items, and each item includes step-by-step procedures that outline a recommended path to follow. Although there may be multiple ways to complete some tasks, it's important to keep track of your choices if you don't follow the recommended path. In the Challenge Labs, you'll be given a set of tasks that you must complete on your own with minimal assistance. An automated scoring system will provide feedback on whether you have successfully completed your tasks. The Learning Labs will provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to perform the required tasks. However, due to limitations imposed by the Qwik…
