Britive Is Built to Automate Your GCP Permissions

GCP Is Fast - But It Poses Security Risks to Cloud-Forward Organizations

Developers love Google Cloud Platform because they can deliver software fast –– and meet their deadlines. Organizations love it because it helps drive growth and revenue. Given its wide attack surface, GCP permissions, identity, and privilege access expose a significant risk.

In GCP, all identities –– human or synthetic –– require privileged entitlements or secrets. Adhering to the principle of least privilege access, Google recommends that all users should be granted just enough access to complete everyday tasks and nothing more. Administrators are responsible for assigning access to various users and groups by defining functional roles. In best practice, an organization’s security policies dictate the level of access to each of these roles.

However, all too often this can result in administrators and users with elevated standing privileges. Standing privileges represent a major threat to an organization; attackers recognize these opportunities and target them aggressively. When companies scale with GCP and rely on additional administrators, users, and groups to satisfy key business drivers, their security risks are catapulted to higher levels as their attack surfaces expand.
