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.
