Description
Formal serves as a reverse proxy that is aware of protocols, enhancing security measures for databases, APIs, infrastructure, and AI tools by implementing least privilege principles at the wire-protocol layer. This tool is deployed as a singular stateless binary within a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) using platforms like Terraform, Kubernetes, or Docker, effectively positioning itself between users and resources without necessitating alterations to applications, SDKs, or agents. Formal supports the analysis of over 15 distinct protocols, such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Snowflake, SSH, Kubernetes, HTTP, MCP, S3, Redis, RDP, BigQuery, ClickHouse, and DynamoDB, which empowers it to make decisions based on specific queries rather than relying solely on broad network filtering. Furthermore, its policies can oversee user authentication and authorization, mask or filter data fields, modify requests, prohibit certain actions, mandate multi-factor authentication, isolate sessions, revoke access, or enable impersonation throughout the stages of session, request, and response. Additionally, teams have the capability to protect AI agents and MCP servers by eliminating personally identifiable information before it is processed by a model, preventing unauthorized calls to tools, and meticulously auditing each action taken. This comprehensive approach not only enhances security but also ensures compliance with data protection regulations.
Description
Cloud Endpoints allows you to create, launch, safeguard, and oversee your APIs effectively. With a robust NGINX-based proxy and a distributed framework, it ensures exceptional performance and scalability. By utilizing either an OpenAPI Specification or one of the provided API frameworks, Cloud Endpoints equips you with essential tools for every stage of API development while offering valuable insights via Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring, and Cloud Trace. You can manage access to your API and authenticate each request using JSON Web Tokens and Google API keys. Additionally, seamless integration with Auth0 and Firebase Authentication enables user identification for your web or mobile applications. The Extensible Service Proxy guarantees security and analytics in under 1 millisecond per request. You can effortlessly deploy your API using App Engine and Google Kubernetes Engine or incorporate our proxy container into your Kubernetes setup. Furthermore, you can track essential operational metrics through the Google Cloud Console and obtain deeper insights into user behavior and usage patterns utilizing Cloud Trace, Cloud Logging, and BigQuery. This comprehensive approach ensures that your APIs are not only secure but also optimized for performance and usability.
