Frequently Asked Questions: Google Security Operations

Key technical, architectural, and procurement questions documented for Google Security Operations by Google Cloud.

|
Traditional SIEMs rely on proprietary index clusters that become cost-prohibitive at petabyte scale. Modern Cloud SIEMs separate compute from storage, utilizing cloud object storage (S3/GCS/Blob) with distributed query engines, enabling scalable ingestion of high-volume telemetry (firewall, DNS, VPC flows) at fractional costs.
