Secure VPC Networks with Cloud Next Generation Firewall teaches you how to design and secure Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environments using Google Cloud’s Next Generation Firewall (NGFW).
As the third course in the Configure Next Generation Firewall series, it builds practical knowledge of how to safeguard cloud infrastructure through advanced network security configurations. You’ll work with tools and policies used to control traffic, detect threats, and maintain secure environments for cloud-based workloads.
This course explores the key fundamentals of VPC network security, including:
- Implementing hierarchical and network firewall policies across VPC infrastructure
- Configuring the Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) to detect and respond to threats
- Designing and assessing firewall strategies for multi-tier applications
You’ll also learn how to apply firewall policies at different levels of your network and configure IPS to identify and act on potential risks. The course also examines how to evaluate and strengthen security strategies for complex application architectures
