Google adds folder membership and scoped remediation to VPC Service Controls

cloud.google.com by Pratik Bhangale 5 min read Editor score 7/10

VPC Service Controls now supports folder-based perimeter membership, granular exceptions and guided remediation for access denials. These controls address the challenge of protecting data while allowing autonomous agents to operate across enterprise projects.

What: - VPC Service Controls now lets administrators include folders in perimeter membership, with policies inherited by contained projects and nested subfolders.
How: - Folder and organization references can also be used directly in ingress and egress rules, automatically covering projects beneath them.
Why it matters: - Hierarchy-based membership can simplify perimeter maintenance and compliance checks as projects move or new workloads are added.

Folder membership extends perimeter policy to projects and nested subfolders. Sketched from the article's own text.
