GCP Threats and Detection: Bootcamp Module
RCCE students will learn Google Cloud Platform security including IAM configuration, VPC security, Cloud Armor, Security Command Center, Cloud Audit Logs, BigQuery security, and GKE cluster security. RCCE students will learn to secure GCP workloads using native security services, configure IAM roles and permissions following least privilege, design secure VPC architectures with firewall rules and shared VPCs, enable and analyze Cloud Audit Logs for security monitoring, detect misconfigurations using Security Command Center, protect web applications with Cloud Armor, secure GKE clusters, and implement automated security remediation using Cloud Functions. This threat-focused course teaches students to think like adversaries while building robust defenses. At an expert level, RCCE students will learn to analyze attack techniques, build detection logic, and implement defensive strategies that proactively identify threats before they cause damage. Students develop a threat-informed mindset that drives better security decisions across all operational activities.
