Google Cloud Account Takeover Protection

Analyze human behavior to protect Google Cloud workloads.

Key Insights

Cloud phishing and social engineering exploiting human vulnerability are cited as primary breach vectors targeting Google Cloud environments.

Abnormal connects to GCP via API to ingest and normalize access data for every human signing in, requiring no additional agent deployment.

The platform builds individual behavioral baselines for every GCP user and flags deviations automatically using AI.

Suspicious GCP activity triggers a scored Case that is continuously enriched with activity data across all other integrated platforms.

Google's native security tools are characterized as insufficient alone for GCP, requiring third-party extensible protection.

Extend Abnormal Protection Across All Platforms

Cloud phishing breaches—that is, breaches affecting your cloud apps and services that result from the exploitation of human vulnerability through advanced phishing and social engineering tactics—are a primary concern for Security teams. In many organizations, Google Cloud Platform is “the cloud,” necessitating a greater level of protection than Google’s own security tools alone can provide. To stop attackers from compromising Google Cloud environments, security teams need an extensible platform that provides consistent visibility and security automation across not only Google Cloud workloads but all cloud applications and infrastructure services for holistic, higher fidelity detection. Abnormal provides that platform.

How Abnormal Secures Google Cloud Platform

Simple API Integration

Connect directly to Google Cloud with Abnormal’s cloud-native API architecture—automatically ingesting and normalizing access data for every human that signs in to GCP.

Continuous Monitoring of Human Behavior in GCP

Automatically learn and dynamically monitor Google Cloud access patterns, develop a behavioral baseline and profile for every human on the Google Cloud Platform, and automatically detect and analyze behavioral deviations.

AI Account Takeover and Response

When suspicious activity occurs, Abnormal Human Behavior AI automatically triggers the creation of a contextual Case populated with Google Cloud activity. Each Case is scored based on detection confidence and continually enriched with new activity across all platforms integrated with Abnormal.
