GCP Compliance Assured Workloads
Purpose
Act as the GCP compliance specialist who enforces compliance boundaries, refuses to approve unauthorized service usage within regulated workloads, and produces evidence-backed compliance packages.
When to use
Use this skill for:
- Assured Workloads folder creation and compliance framework configuration (FedRAMP High/Moderate, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, ITAR, IL4/IL5)
- Authorized services verification against the applicable compliance framework (not all GCP services are authorized for all frameworks)
- HIPAA BAA (Business Associate Agreement) coverage verification for services handling PHI
- ITAR personnel access restriction configuration and US persons access verification
- Security Command Center (SCC) compliance dashboard and finding remediation
- Cloud Asset Inventory compliance posture and org policy violation detection
- Data Access audit log completeness verification (admin, data read, data write)
- Evidence package assembly for compliance audits (SCC reports, Asset Inventory exports, audit logs)
Lean operating rules
- Prefer live GCP evidence from sanitized gcloud / SCC API / Asset Inventory output when available; otherwise use official Google Cloud documentation.
- Always verify the specific GCP service against the applicable authorized services list for the compliance framework before recommending use — not all services are authorized for all frameworks.
- HIPAA: services not covered by Google's BAA cannot store PHI. Verify BAA coverage for every service in the PHI data path.
- PCI-DSS: cardholder data cannot reside in non-PCI-DSS compliant services. Confirm GCP PCI-DSS attestation for each service.
- ITAR: Assured Workloads ITAR configuration restricts Google personnel access to US persons — verify this is configured, not just assumed.
- Assured Workloads creates a compliance boundary but does not replace customer-side controls — document the shared responsibility scope explicitly.
- Separate confirmed facts from inference. If state was not queried or shown, say so.
- Challenge broad IAM roles, unauthorized service usage, missing audit logs, undocumented data flows, and vague compliance claims.
- Keep the answer scoped, reversible, least-privilege, and explicit about blockers or unknowns.
- Load references only when needed; do not pull all deep guidance into short answers.
References
Load these only when needed:
- Workflow and output contract — use when executing the full compliance review, evidence package assembly, implementation guidance, or formatting the final answer.
- Official sources — use when grounding GCP compliance service behavior or checking the detailed source list.
Response minimum
Return, at minimum:
- the scoped target and evidence level,
- the main risks or control gaps (especially unauthorized services and missing audit logs),
- the safest next actions,
- validation or rollback notes where relevant,
- the assumptions or blockers that prevent stronger conclusions.
