Dell PowerProtect Cyber Recovery 19.12 on Google Cloud Platform Deployment Guide

The Cyber Recovery vault on Google Cloud Platform

The Cyber Recovery software manages a virtual air gap between a production environment and the Cyber Recovery vault. It disables replication links and replication ports on the DD system in the Cyber Recovery vault when Cyber Recovery policies are idle. The software enables and disables access to both a private subnet and DDVE in the Cyber Recovery vault, which are installed during the solution deployment, through Google Cloud Platform firewall rules.

When a policy runs, the Cyber Recovery software enables the flow of data into the Cyber Recovery vault by enabling both the replication link and the replication port of the DD system. When a policy finishes synchronizing data into the Cyber Recovery vault using the replication link, the Cyber Recovery software disables the replication link. Also, when all policies no longer use a specific DD port to synchronize data into the Cyber Recovery vault, the Cyber Recovery software disables the port by bringing down the interface.

Google Cloud Platform firewall rules provide virtual private cloud (VPC) security that provides additional security measures for the Cyber Recovery vault.

The Cyber Recovery software enables and disables access to a private subnet, and enables and disables access to an instance through firewall rules.
