NG SIEM - GCP Integration

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is Google’s suite of cloud computing services that lets businesses and developers build, deploy, and scale applications on Google’s infrastructure. It offers a wide range of services, including computing power (like virtual machines and Kubernetes), storage, databases, machine learning, networking, and analytics. GCP is known for its global reliability, security, and integration with Google’s data and AI tools, making it suitable for everything from simple websites to complex enterprise applications.

Authentication

To use the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) integration, the client must configure a Service Account (SA) that represents a non-human identity requiring access to GCP resources.

Service Account

First, you need to create a Service Account. A Service Account (SA) is a particular type of Google account intended to represent a non-human user who needs to access the GCP resources.

The AQUILA Agent uses the SA to access data on Google Cloud Platform using the Google APIs.
