Introducing new scalable perimeter options with VPC Service Controls
Agents represent a fundamental shift in cloud operations. They can act on behalf of users or autonomously, make non-deterministic decisions, and request data across projects at unprecedented speed and scale. Because agents are a distinct category of non-human identity (NHI), they require unique secure-by-default guardrails.
Traditional, manually-operated network perimeters are vulnerable to today’s machine-speed attacks. Overly permissive perimeters, built to avoid blocked connections, increase the risk of unauthorized data theft, but overly strict perimeters stall development under a flood of access denials.
Today, we're excited to announce key enhancements to VPC Service Controls (VPC-SC) that make perimeters easier to create, maintain, and scale. You can now add folders to perimeter membership, so that projects contained in them inherit policy. You can also manage granular exceptions and resolve denials with guided, scoped remediation.
The result is data protected by default, so you can scale autonomous agents across your enterprise without letting...
