What is Google Cloud Armor?

Ensuring the security of your website is essential, as compromised sites can mislead users or even steal their information. Google Cloud Armor is a tool designed to protect websites by blocking malicious traffic and preventing common attacks.

What is Google Cloud Armor?​

Google Cloud Armor is a firewall that acts as a shield for websites, routing traffic through a layer of security to detect and block harmful activities. It safeguards against various attacks, including:

  • Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attacks: Large-scale attacks aimed at overwhelming the website’s server.
  • SQL Injections: Attempts to manipulate a website’s database through insecure inputs.
  • Brute Force Attacks: Automated, high-frequency login attempts to gain unauthorized access.

How to Set Up Google Cloud Armor​

  1. Log in to Your Domain Provider’s Account

    • Access the website where you purchased your domain.

  2. Update the A Record

    • For each domain, modify the A record to the following IP address:
      • 34.149.86.124

For more guidance on domain configuration, see Set up your domain.

Using Google Cloud Armor can help you keep your website secure, protecting both your data and your visitors.
