Automate GDPR Privacy Compliance Across Google Cloud

Ensure compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) on GCP. Monitor data residency controls, cross-border data transfer policies, and access controls.

The Challenge

GDPR requires strict technical and organizational measures to safeguard EU resident data. Rogue Google Cloud Storage buckets, broad IAM access policies, or unencrypted BigQuery tables can trigger fines up to 4% of global turnover.

The Solution

SurfaceScan verifies GDPR compliance on Google Cloud by validating asset locations, auditing data retention and encryption, and logging compliance audit evidence.

Compliance & Architecture FAQ

How does Google Cloud comply with GDPR data residency requirements?

GDPR requires that EU personal data must be processed within the EEA or under adequate safeguards. SurfaceScan monitors the resource locations of your GCP VMs, Cloud Storage buckets, and BigQuery datasets to ensure they do not violate geographic restrictions.

What GCP security controls are verified for GDPR?

We audit Cloud IAM member privileges, customer-managed encryption key (CMEK) states, VPC firewall rules, and Cloud Audit Logging configurations.
