Cloudsecurity

Google protects over 4 billion users every day. When you run on Google Cloud Platform, your infrastructure benefits from the same security investments. We make sure it's set up right for your business.

Why is Google Cloud Platform security different?

Google invests over $10 billion a year in security. The same infrastructure that protects Gmail , Google Search, and YouTube also protects your GCP environment:

Default encryption

All data, both stored and transmitted, is automatically encrypted. Without additional settings and additional costs. AES-256 for stored data, TLS 1.3 for transmitted data.

Global private network

Your data travels on Google's private network—the same fiber optic network that connects its data centers. It doesn't travel on the public internet. Less latency, more security.

Titan Security Keys

Custom security hardware on every Google server. Titan chips verify the integrity of hardware and firmware at every boot.

Mandiant Threat Intelligence

Google acquired Mandiant, a global leader in cyber intelligence. Its threat intelligence powers Chronicle's SIEM and Security Command Center services, enabling the detection of sophisticated attacks.

Our approach to cloud security

Security is not a one-time project – it is an ongoing process. We cover all five layers:

Security posture audit

We assess your current configuration: overly broad IAM permissions, open firewall rules, unprotected API , and unencrypted data. We provide a report outlining prioritized risks and an action plan.

Security Command Center (SCC)

A centralized dashboard that identifies vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, threats, and compliance gaps in real time. We activate it, set up notifications, and train you to use it.

Chronicle SIEM + SOAR

Google SIEM analyzes petabytes of security logs without performance degradation. Unlike Splunk and Elastic solutions, Chronicle SIEM doesn't charge for the amount of data you ingest—you can analyze everything without being filtered out for cost. SOAR automates incident response.

IAM and Zero Trust with BeyondCorp solution

Least Privileges for All Permissions. BeyondCorp Enterprise replaces your traditional VPN: Conditional access based on identity, device, and context. Every request is checked - nothing is trusted by default.

Compliance

We help you meet GDPR , E-ITS (Estonian Information Security Standard), NIS2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA requirements. To do this, we use Organization Policies and VPC Service Controls solutions, Cloud DLP service to protect sensitive data, and Access Transparency logs to audit who has access to what.

Chronicle SIEM vs. alternatives

Chronicle SIEM (Google)

No data volume charges. Scales to petabytes. Integrated Mandiant AI. Includes 12-month retention period.

Splunk

Fees are calculated based on the amount of data entered (GB). Costs increase rapidly. Requires your own infrastructure or Splunk Cloud.

Elastic SIEM

Open source, but requires self-management of the cluster. Manual scaling. No built-in threat intelligence.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Google Cloud is GDPR compliant, offers regions in the EU (Finland, Sweden, Germany) to ensure data locality, and enables the use of specialized tools such as Cloud DLP and VPC-SC. For E-ITS and NIS2, ArgentoCloud helps implement the necessary technical measures in GCP to ensure your organization is compliant.

Chronicle SIEM is Google's security information and event management solution built on your internal infrastructure. Because Google has no storage limits, Chronicle SIEM doesn't charge per GB of data you enter, but rather a flat rate. This means you can analyze all of your logs without filtering for cost, providing the kind of security insight that would be prohibitively expensive with a Splunk solution.

Not necessarily your own SOC. We can manage the security of your GCP environment as part of our managed services: threat monitoring, IAM reviews, incident response, and compliance. For companies that require a dedicated SOC, we deploy Chronicle SIEM + SOAR to automate threat detection and response.

BeyondCorp Enterprise is Google’s Zero Trust model. Unlike a VPN, which gives you full access to the network once you connect, BeyondCorp verifies every request in real time: who you are, what device you’re using, and where you’re connecting from. If your laptop isn’t up to date, you can’t access it. No VPN, no hotspots, no bottlenecks.

Security Command Center offers a free Standard tier that includes basic vulnerability detection. The Premium tier (which includes threat detection, compliance, and the Web Security Scanner tool) is billed as a percentage of GCP costs. For most organizations, this represents an additional 2-5% of your cloud bill—a negligible amount compared to the risk of a security breach.
