Demystifying Workload Security in Google Cloud Platform
Deploying and configuring cloud workload security shouldn’t have to be so difficult. If you’re still working with the complex traditional way of deploying and managing legacy firewalls or VPNs in the cloud, it’s high time to move on and look at Zscaler Workload Communications.
Zscaler Workloads Communications has now expanded its support to Google Cloud, one of the most widely adopted clouds, alongside AWS and Microsoft Azure.
How it works
Before we jump into design options for Workload Communications on Google Cloud, if you need a quick refresher on Zscaler Cloud Connector (VMs that facilitate secure egress traffic for cloud workloads and enable Workload Communications), you can read about it here.
Workload Communications on Google Cloud Platform
Let’s take a closer look at different Google Cloud networking design options as well as the pros and cons of each design.
Google Cloud has an interesting feature called Shared VPC Architecture or Shared Project, which provides great flexibility for the Networking team to centralize cloud security management and control. Using Shared VPC Architecture, a developer can focus on the development side while the Networking team completely manages and controls networking. Using Shared VPC Architecture in Google Cloud is a recommended best practice. For more information, check out Shared VPC | Google Cloud.

Conclusion
Every design has pros and cons depending on your organization's requirements. Whichever design you choose, Zscaler Workload Communications provides the flexibility to secure it seamlessly, with complete automation support using Terraform.
There’s no need for Trust/Untrust VPCs—Zscaler Cloud Connectors can be deployed as part of a Single Shared VPC shared across workloads or as part of an Isolated VPC as mentioned in the above designs.
If your organization is looking for seamless multicloud security with unlimited scale for firewall, proxy, TLS decryption, DLP, and more, look no further than Zscaler Workload Communications.
