Google Cloud Security Command Center

The Sumo Logic app for Google Cloud Security Command Center (SCC) provides real-time visibility into cloud risks, including misconfigurations, threats, and vulnerabilities in Google Cloud environments. It features pre-configured dashboards that highlight high-priority security findings, such as privileged account issues, API misuse, software vulnerabilities, severity breakdowns, resource and project-level filtering, and detailed summaries to streamline triage and remediation workflows. This enables you to monitor, investigate, and respond effectively to improve cloud security, reduce risk, and maintain compliance.

info

This app includes built-in monitors. For details on creating custom monitors, refer to the Create monitors for Google Cloud Security Command Center app.

Log types

This app uses the Findings generated by Security Command Center (SCC).

Configure the data collection from Google Cloud Security Command Center

This section describes the Sumo Logic pipeline for collecting the data from Google Cloud Security Command Center (SCC).

Integrating the Google Cloud Security Command Center app

Follow the steps below to integrate the Google Cloud Security Command Center (SCC) app:

Enable the Security Command Center (SCC) at the GCP console.
In Sumo Logic, configure the Google Cloud Platform source.
In the GCP console, configure a Pub/Sub Topic for GCP. This topic will be used to send SCC findings from GCP to Sumo Logic.
In the SCC blade of the GCP console, click Continuous Exports.
In the GCP console, export the findings from SCC to the Pub/Sub Topic created above.

Testing the integration

Refer to this link to test the continuous exports created above.
Live Tail at Sumo Logic to see the findings from SCC.

Installing the Google Cloud Security Command Center app

Now that you have set up the collection for Google Cloud Security Command Center (SCC), install the Sumo Logic app to use the pre-configured searches and dashboards that provide visibility into your environment for real-time analysis of overall usage.

To install the app, do the following:

note

Next-Gen App: To install or update the app, you must be an account administrator or a user with Manage Apps, Manage Monitors, Manage Fields, Manage Metric Rules, and Manage Collectors capabilities depending upon the different content types part of the app.

Select App Catalog.
In the 🔎 Search Apps field, run a search for your desired app, then select it.
Click Install App.
note
Sometimes this button says Add Integration.
Click Next in the Setup Data section.
In the Configure section of your respective app, complete the following fields.
1. Field Name. If you already have collectors and sources set up, select the configured metadata field name (eg _sourcecategory) or specify other custom metadata (eg: _collector) along with its metadata Field Value.
Click Next. You will be redirected to the Preview & Done section.

Post-installation

Once your app is installed, it will appear in your Installed Apps folder, and dashboard panels will start to fill automatically.

Each panel slowly fills with data matching the time range query received since the panel was created. Results will not immediately be available but will be updated with full graphs and charts over time.

Viewing Google Cloud Security Command Center dashboards

All dashboards have a set of filters that you can apply to the entire dashboard. Use these filters to drill down and examine the data to a granular level.

You can change the time range for a dashboard or panel by selecting a predefined interval from a drop-down list, choosing a recently used time range, or specifying custom dates and times. Learn more.
You can use template variables to drill down and examine the data on a granular level. For more information, see Filtering Dashboards with Template Variables.
Most Next-Gen apps allow you to provide the scope at the installation time and are comprised of a key (_sourceCategory by default) and a default value for this key. Based on your input, the app dashboards will be parameterized with a dashboard variable, allowing you to change the dataset queried by all panels. This eliminates the need to create multiple copies of the same dashboard with different queries.

Misconfigurations

The Google Cloud - Security Command Center - Misconfigurations dashboard provides you with a comprehensive view of misconfigurations across Google Cloud. It shows the total number of misconfigurations by severity, category, project, and resource type, helping identify high-risk issues like over-privileged accounts or insecure Kubernetes settings. You can quickly identify high-risk issues like over-privileged accounts or insecure Kubernetes settings and pinpoint the most affected resources. The dashboard supports rapid investigation and proactive remediation, enhancing overall cloud security posture.

Threats

The Google Cloud - Security Command Center - Threats dashboard provides you with real-time visibility into threats in the Google Cloud environments. It displays threat counts by severity and type, identifies affected projects and resources, and offers detailed findings for incident investigation. The dashboard aids in prioritizing responses, detecting suspicious activity early, and improving overall cloud threat detection and response.

Vulnerabilities

The Google Cloud - Security Command Center - Vulnerabilities dashboard provides you with insights into known vulnerabilities across cloud resources for effective risk assessment and remediation. The dashboard displays the total count of vulnerabilities detected, categorized by severity and type (for example, GKE Security Bulletin, Software, OS), helping prioritize critical and high-severity issues. Analysts can drill into project-specific data and detailed findings like CVEs or SQL injection risks, making this dashboard key to reducing exposure and maintaining a secure cloud environment.

Create monitors for Google Cloud Security Command Center app

From your App Catalog:

From the Sumo Logic navigation, select App Catalog.
In the Search Apps field, search for and then select your app.
Make sure the app is installed.
Navigate to What's Included tab and scroll down to the Monitors section.
Click Create next to the pre-configured monitors. In the create monitors window, adjust the trigger conditions and notifications settings based on your requirements.
Scroll down to Monitor Details.
Under Location click on New Folder.
note
By default, monitor will be saved in the root folder. So to make the maintenance easier, create a new folder in the location of your choice.
Enter Folder Name. Folder Description is optional.
tip
Using app version in the folder name will be helpful to determine the versioning for future updates.
Click Create. Once the folder is created, click on Save.
