How Google Cloud Uses Multi-Layer Security To Protect Businesses

[Narrator] Computer security is one of the

great challenges of our time.

Imagine being Google.

As part of serving and protecting eight apps

with more than a billion users each,

Google filters 10 million spam messages a minute,

spots 100,000 suspicious web pages a day,

and delivers almost unimaginable amounts

of encrypted traffic,

over what may be the world's largest proprietary network.

Now, Google is offering its sophisticated security

to other businesses, through Google Cloud,

its cloud computing business.

To help create a secure foundation,

Google Cloud takes a defense in depth approach.

In other words, building multiple layers of protection

right into the infrastructure.

Google designs its own servers, security chips,

storage and networking gear,

housing them in high-security data centers around the globe.

Core software is automatically kept up to date

to protect against the latest security vulnerabilities.

Data at rest is encrypted automatically,

making it unreadable to anyone who should not have access.

Users and machines must prove

that they are who they say they are

for access to data or services.

Connections to Google Cloud from the internet are encrypted,

and multiple layers of defense are in place

to help protect customers against network attacks,

like denial of service.

A global team of more than 900 security experts

monitor the system 24 hours a day, seven days a week,

365 days a year,

protecting and responding to attacks or issues.

Google Cloud delivers an infrastructure designed, built,

and operated for security.

It's a powerful platform for companies to help secure

and drive their business forward.
