What problem does it solve? Evaluating the security posture of Google Cloud workloads against best practices is time-consuming and requires deep familiarity with the Well-Architected Framework. This Skill structures that evaluation, helping you identify gaps in IAM, network security, data protection, and security operations. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Security Assessment: Walks through workload assessment questions covering security by design, zero trust, shift-left security, preemptive cyber defense, AI security, and regulatory compliance. - Gap Analysis with Validation Checklist: Compares your architecture against a concrete checklist to surface missing controls like VPC Service Controls, Binary Authorization, or centralized logging. - Product-Mapped Recommendations: Aligns each recommendation with relevant Google Cloud products such as Cloud Armor, Security Command Center, Cloud KMS, and Google SecOps. - Use Case: Before launching a new service on Google Cloud, use this Skill to review your architecture, identify that default networks are still enabled and CI/CD lacks vulnerability scanning, then receive prioritized remediation guidance. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to evaluate the security posture of your Google Cloud workload against the Well-Architected Framework security pillar.
