These checks provide more granular visibility into your cloud configurations and expand the scope of automated compliance detection. The checks are currently available for **Google Cloud Platform (GCP)** and are applied automatically to eligible infrastructure services when enabled. *** ### What Happens When You Enable These Checks When the new checks are activated, Sprinto performs the following actions: #### 1. Configuration Analysis Sprinto fetches the current configuration details of your integrated infrastructure accounts and analyses them against the latest check definitions. #### 2. Check Activation If any configuration does not meet the required security standard, Sprinto activates the relevant check against the affected resource. #### 3. Continuous Monitoring Once you fix the flagged configuration (for example, by enabling encryption or disabling a risky feature), Sprinto automatically detects the update and marks the check as **Passing**. *** ### How to Enable the New Checks You can enable the advanced checks using either of the following methods: * Navigate to the **Data Library > Infrastructure** page in the Sprinto admin portal and click **Enable Now** on the banner.
* Alternatively, click **Enable** from the notification email sent to your organisation’s administrators. For assistance, contact [Sprinto Support](mailto:www.support@sprinto.com). *** ### Newly Introduced Checks for GCP | **Sprinto Check** | **Description** | | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | | Ensure GKE Kubernetes Web UI (Dashboard) is disabled | Prevents exposure of the web UI interface for GKE clusters | | Ensure GKE Metadata Server is enabled | Validates the use of metadata server for GKE workloads | | Ensure Kubernetes clusters have logging and cloud monitoring enabled | Enforces observability for clusters | | Ensure Bigtable Instances are encrypted | Verifies that Bigtable data is encrypted at rest | | Ensure Bigtable cluster CPU load is monitored | Tracks CPU usage to detect resource bottlenecks | | Ensure Bigtable cluster storage utilisation is monitored | Ensures storage growth is being tracked | | Ensure user data is encrypted at rest | Validates encryption for all GCP-hosted user data | *** Let me know if you’d like to: * Add this to the “What’s New” index for Infrastructure * Link this under the Monitoring or Dashboard Actions section * Draft a similar announcement for other providers (e.g., AWS, Azure) once new checks are introduced for them
