Session
Have you ever stared at a GCP audit log error—like “resource not found” or “permission denied”—and wondered what really went wrong or if there’s more to the story? In this session, we’ll unravel the often-overlooked world of GCP error codes and reveal how these cryptic messages can guide your incident response, sharpen detection rules, and even hint at possible reconnaissance attempts. Through practical examples, we’ll show how digging deeper into error objects can highlight missing identity details, reduce false positives, and strengthen your overall GCP security posture. If you’ve ever dismissed an “unhelpful” error, join us to learn why those logs might be more powerful than you think.
