USM Anywhere deploys the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Sensor through the Google Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and requires at a minimum the specifications below:

Requirement	Description
n1-standard-2 instance	A standard instance with 2 vCPUs and 7.5 GB of memory.
Zonal SSD persistent disk 50GB	Persistent disk storage offers reliable network storage that your instances can access like physical disks. A 50GB volume is designated as the default size for optimal performance.
Internet connection to the USM Anywhere secure cloud	Review the Sensor Ports and Connectivity for more information.

Application Service Dependencies

With the Deployment Manager Template provided by AT&T Cybersecurity, you can automatically deploy a USM Anywhere Sensor as a service into your environment. Review the following lists for information about the inbound and outbound IP addresses, ports, and services used by USM Anywhere.

Sensor Ports and Connectivity

For USM Anywhere Sensor deployment in the Google Cloud Platform (GCP), the Cloud Deployment Manager template automatically creates the firewall rules needed for network connectivity between the instances within the virtual private Cloud (VPC).

Note: The required firewall rules are outlined below.

Sensor Ports and Connectivity (Outbound Ports)

Type	Ports	Endpoints	Purpose
TCP	443	update.alienvault.cloud	Communication with AT&T Cybersecurity for initial setup and future updates of the sensor.
TCP	443	reputation.alienvault.com	Ongoing communication with AT&T Alien Labs™ (OTX™).
TCP	443	otx.alienvault.com	Ongoing communication with OTX to retrieve vulnerability scores. Connecting to otx.alienvault.com is not required but highly recommended.
TCP	443	your USM Anywhere subdomain .alienvault.cloud	Ongoing communication with USM Anywhere.

Google Cloud Services

The USM Anywhere Sensor uses the following GCP services:

• Stackdriver
• Google Compute Engine
• Google Cloud Pub/Sub

Installation Prerequisites

Before you install the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Sensor, make sure you have the following prerequisites available:

Prerequisites	Description
Cloud Deployment Manager template provided by AT&T Cybersecurity	The Deployment Manager template automatically creates all required GCP resources for deployment, including an instance, volume, and firewall rules for use by the USM Anywhere Sensor instance.
Privileged user account on GCP	To deploy the Deployment Manager template, you must have a privileged user account in GCP with Compute Engine permissions, permission to create and edit service accounts, as well as write permission to the Deployment Manager.
