Google Introduces App Engine Firewall
Security Week | August 25, 2017
Google on Thursday informed cloud platform customers that the beta release of its App Engine firewall is available for testing. The Google App Engine firewall allows developers and administrators to easily allow or block traffic from specified IP addresses by defining a set of rules and ordering them based on priority. Hosting an application in the cloud has many benefits, but unwanted traffic can have a negative impact on workloads and it can result in significant costs.
