Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

 

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) support has been deprecated. Please use Google Cloud Platform V2 (GCP) instead.

 

Steps to get required configs

  • You will get your Google organization on the top bar of GCP dashboard as marked by the red arrow in the screenshot below. Users & Groups in this primary domain organization will be synced.

  • To authenticate the integration, you will need either Zilla managed service account’s credentials or your own service account’s credentials.

In the case of Zilla managed service account:

  • If you want to go with Zilla managed service account based authentication, please reach out to the Zilla support team to get the service account email, support@zillasecurity.com.

  • After getting the email, create a custom role for Zilla with the below command in Cloud shell.

    gcloud iam roles create zilla_security_role --organization=<your-org-id> --permissions=resourcemanager.organizations.get,resourcemanager.organizations.getIamPolicy,iam.roles.get,iam.roles.list,resourcemanager.projects.get,resourcemanager.projects.getIamPolicy,resourcemanager.projects.list,iam.serviceAccounts.list
  • Assign this role to Zilla managed service account with the below command in Cloud shell.

    gcloud organizations add-iam-policy-binding <your-org-id> --member serviceAccount:<zilla-managed-service-account-email> --role organizations/<your-org-id>/roles/zilla_security_role --condition=None
  • Private key and email of the service account will be set by the Zilla support team.

In the case of your own service account:

  • If you want to use your own service account to authenticate the integration, please create one under any of your projects and grant the permissions below.

    resourcemanager.organizations.get resourcemanager.organizations.getIamPolicy iam.roles.get iam.roles.list resourcemanager.projects.get resourcemanager.projects.getIamPolicy resourcemanager.projects.list iam.serviceAccounts.list
  • Private key and emails of the service account will be used in a later step.
