Google Cloud Secure Web Proxy Adds Authorization Policies and mTLS

You can now use authorization policies to perform identity-based and content-based access control checks when processing outbound traffic requests through Secure Web Proxy. By configuring authorization policies , you can set rules for your workloads to access external destinations. You can also use these authorization policies to delegate complex authorization decisions to identity and content-scanning services like Service Extensions. This feature is supported in Preview .

You can integrate frontend mutual TLS (mTLS) with Secure Web Proxy to boost the security of your applications and workloads. With this integration, you can use validated client identities in Secure Web Proxy authorization policies to enforce granular access control for outbound traffic.
