Migrate to a Google Cloud project

This document explains how to migrate an existing Google SecOps instance to a customer-owned Google Cloud project.

By linking a Google SecOps instance to a Google Cloud project, you can use Google Cloud services for key capabilities, for example:

• Examine ingested data and monitor the project for potential security threats.

• Use authentication and monitoring features, including:

  • Cloud Identity integration for accessing a range of Google Cloud services, such as authentication, Identity and Access Management, Cloud Monitoring, and Cloud Audit Logs.

  • IAM and Workforce Identity Federation support for authenticating with your existing third-party IdP.

To migrate an existing Google SecOps instance to a customer-owned Google Cloud project, do the following:

1. Sign in to Google SecOps.
2. Select Settings > SIEM Settings.
3. Click Google Cloud Platform.
4. Enter the Google Cloud project ID to link the project to the Google SecOps instance.
5. Click Generate link.
6. Click Connect to Google Cloud Platform. The Google Cloud console opens. If you enter an incorrect Google Cloud project ID in the Google SecOps application, return to the Google Cloud Platformpage in Google SecOps and enter the correct project ID.
7. On the Google Cloud console, go to Security > Google SecOps.
8. Verify the service account that the system created for the Google Cloud project.
9. Optional: You can configure single sign-on (SSO) at this point. Alternatively, you can do that in the next step, Migrate from legacy authentication to Google Cloud authentication .
10. Click Connect.
