How Cribl Partners with Google Cloud Security to Transform Telemetry Data Management for Google Security Operations

Last edited: April 8, 2025

Organizations today are grappling with an explosion of telemetry data growth as cloud adoption accelerates, digital infrastructures expands, and operational complexity increases. More data creates more challenges for IT and security teams as they struggle to separate signal from noise while maintaining compliance and efficiency within constrained budgets. It often feels like being caught in the deep end of a wave pool without a floatie, with each new data source sending another wave crashing down. This is especially prevalent when managing the mix of modern and legacy tooling that can come with mergers, acquisitions, or shifts in strategy. Teams risk being locked into rigid workflows or a single cloud, slowing progress if they don’t have an open and flexible way to integrate disparate technologies, data pipelines, and security architectures.

This is where Cribl partners with Google Cloud to give enterprises real options for handling data. Cribl’s tools for collecting, routing, and processing work seamlessly with Google Security Operations, Google Threat Intelligence (including Mandiant), Google Cloud Logging, and Google Cloud Storage. This partnership isn’t just about systems integration. It’s about simplifying telemetry data management, giving teams a better way to manage data, reduce complexity, and actually make progress instead of treading water. Plus, Cribl is SOC 2 Type II attested and ISO 27001 certified, helping to ensure your sensitive information is protected and compliant.

Make Data Onboarding Simple, Regardless of Your SIEM Strategy

Whether you are migrating from a legacy SIEM or building out a modern multi-SIEM strategy, Cribl Stream makes data onboarding simple. Its universal receiver and router let you bring in data from any source, reshape it in flight, and send it wherever it needs to go. No extra licensing. No added complexity. This means less time spent on manual plumbing and more time focused on actual analysis.

Looking to migrate from your legacy SIEM provider to Google Security Operations? By selectively routing data from legacy SIEM platforms to Google Security Operations, you can accelerate project timelines while maintaining operational parity.

Are you looking to improve storage efficiency? Cribl Stream helps you ingest data into Google Cloud Logging to optimize real-time log storage and management, expanding the scope of analysis and sending alerts to enhance security operations.

Stay Flexible as Your Data Strategy Evolves

Cribl’s flexible workflows let you build data pipelines that fit your needs today with the flexibility to adjust as things change in the future. Maybe your team is adding new threat intelligence sources this year. Maybe next year, you need to tweak those fields to meet new compliance rules. Cribl makes those changes easy so you can stay agile without breaking your workflow.

Whether you are all in on Google Cloud or working across multiple clouds, Cribl helps you collect, shape, and route data the way you want. You get full visibility and control without giving up performance.

Get Cleaner, Smarter Data That Works Harder for You

Cleaning up your data before it hits your analysis tools can have a big impact. By filtering out noisy or unnecessary data, you improve system performance and make it easier to move fast. If you need more context, Cribl Stream lets you enrich telemetry data with threat feeds, GeoIP details, or custom metadata.

Worried about sensitive information? Stream can mask critical data to help you stay compliant and keep it out of the wrong hands. These small-but-powerful adjustments give you cleaner, more useful data that leads to better security and faster decision-making.

Accelerate Projects and Prove Value Faster

The Cribl suite of products helps teams move fast by making it easy to collect, shape, and route data into Google Cloud, which means proof-of-concept cycles get shorter. Instead of wrangling data, teams can focus on making decisions and driving results.

With Cribl integrated across Google Cloud’s offerings working together, you get faster time to value. Complex telemetry data workflows become simple, and expanding your pipelines as your business grows is no longer a heavy lift. It is all about keeping your data strategy agile and ready for what is next.
