Google VPC Service Controls vs. Symantec Web Security Service

VPC Service Controls allow users to define a security perimeter around Google Cloud Platform resources such as Cloud Storage buckets, Bigtable instances, and BigQuery datasets to constrain data within a VPC and help mitigate data exfiltration risks. With VPC Service Controls, enterprises can keep their sensitive data private as they take advantage of the fully managed storage and data processing capabilities of Google Cloud Platform.

Symantec Web Security Service (WSS) provides the same proactive web protection capabilities delivered by the market’s leading on-premises Secure Web Gateway, Symantec ProxySG, but delivered as a resilient and performant cloud security service. Sitting between employees, wherever they are located, and the Internet, the service protects the enterprise from cyber threats, controls and protects corporate use of cloud applications and the web, prevents data leaks, and ensures compliance with all company information and web/cloud access policies.
