Google Cloud VPN
Google Cloud VPN is a service that securely connects your on-premises network to Google's Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network through an IPsec VPN tunnel. This encrypted connection ensures that data traveling between your networks remains protected over the public internet. Cloud VPN is particularly beneficial for low-volume data connections and is designed for secure communication between private networks, not for routing traffic to the public internet.
