Google Cloud has made enhancements to VPC Service Controls generally available at no additional cost, allowing administrators to apply security perimeters to folders so that projects and nested subfolders inherit their policies.

The update also lets administrators reference folders, organizations and designated private endpoints in rules governing incoming and outgoing access. A guided remediation feature proposes narrowly scoped policy changes for blocked requests.

Administrators can test folder membership and proposed fixes against live traffic in dry-run mode before enforcing them.
