Executive Summary Preview

Google Cloud Healthcare API (cloud.google.com), a product offering from Google, has been assessed at Tier 3 (Moderate Risk) with an 82% confidence score. The moderate tier reflects not the vendor's overall security posture — which is demonstrably strong — but rather specific evidence gaps around subprocessor transparency and AI data usage policy clarity that warrant attention before deployment in healthcare data environments.

Recommended Actions

  1. Obtain Google Cloud's current SOC 2 Type II report and bridge letter — contact your Google Cloud account representative or submit a compliance request via the Google Cloud compliance portal. Many enterprise customers access these through Google's compliance reports manager at cloud.google.com/security/compliance/compliance-reports-manager.
  2. Manually review the subprocessor list at cloud.google.com/security/subprocessors to identify all entities processing data on Google Cloud's behalf. Subscribe to Google's subprocessor change notification mechanism (typically an email list or RSS feed linked from that page) to receive advance notice of additions.
  3. Request written confirmation from your Google Cloud account team — or review the Google Cloud Data Processing Addendum at cloud.google.com/terms/data-processing-addendum — to determine whether customer data (including PHI) is excluded from AI model training, and document the response in your vendor risk register.

ThirdProof uses a deterministic rules engine to assign risk tiers. AI writes the narrative — rules drive the decision.

What a ThirdProof assessment covers

Sanctions Screening

Is Google Cloud on any OFAC, EU, or UN sanctions list? Are any officers or affiliates flagged?

Cyber Risk Assessment

What is Google Cloud's security posture? Threat intelligence scanning, known vulnerabilities, and security header analysis.

Business Registration

Is Google Cloud a legitimately registered business entity? Corporate status, jurisdiction, and officer verification.

Adverse Media Analysis

Has Google Cloud appeared in negative news coverage? Data breaches, lawsuits, regulatory actions, and complaints.

Domain & Infrastructure

Is Google Cloud's website secure? TLS configuration, DNS hygiene, security headers, and domain age analysis.

Company Intelligence

What are Google Cloud's firmographics? Employee count, industry classification, technology stack, and corporate structure.

Trust & Compliance Verification

Does Google Cloud claim SOC 2, ISO 27001, HITRUST, or FedRAMP? ThirdProof scans trust pages for certification claims and cross-references the FedRAMP public registry for independent verification.

Supply Chain & Subprocessor Discovery

Who does Google Cloud depend on? ThirdProof discovers subprocessors from vendor-published pages and runs sanctions screening and safe browsing checks against each one.

Regulatory & Financial Filings

Has Google Cloud appeared in SEC enforcement filings? Is it associated with any FDIC bank failures? ThirdProof searches regulatory databases with entity verification to confirm attribution.

Frequently asked about Google Cloud

Is Google Cloud FedRAMP authorized?+
Yes, Google Cloud holds FedRAMP Moderate authorization as of March 2026.
Does Google Cloud have SOC 2 Type II?+
Yes — Google Cloud holds SOC 2 (Type II not confirmed). Rated Moderate Risk — subprocessor list unavailable. See all 2 findings →
Is Google Cloud on the OFAC sanctions list?+
Google Cloud returned no matches in ThirdProof's OFAC SDN, EU Consolidated, and UN sanctions screening as of March 2026.
What is Google Cloud's vendor risk tier?+
ThirdProof assigned Google Cloud a risk tier of Moderate Risk with 82% confidence based on assessment across 27 intelligence sources as of March 2026.
Can I get an auto-filled security questionnaire for Google Cloud?+
Yes. Every ThirdProof investigation of Google Cloud produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and a 133-question security questionnaire pre-filled with evidence from 27 independent sources. The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Google Cloud a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Google Cloud safe to use as a vendor?+
Google Cloud is a cloud infrastructure vendor that handles organizational workloads and data. Safety depends on their current security posture, certification status, and how they handle your specific data. ThirdProof automates this evaluation across 27 intelligence sources — sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), business registration verification, adverse media scanning, and cyber risk assessment — producing a deterministic risk tier with confidence score plus an auto-filled security questionnaire. Run a free investigation to see Google Cloud's full risk profile.
Does Google Cloud have SOC 2 certification?+
Yes — Google Cloud holds SOC 2 + 9 other certs. Rated Moderate Risk — subprocessor list unavailable. See all 2 findings →
Has Google Cloud had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly cloud infrastructure platforms like Google Cloud that handle organizational workloads and data. ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification.
Is Google Cloud on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for cloud infrastructure vendors. ThirdProof screens Google Cloud against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Google Cloud or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Google Cloud for vendor risk?+
Assessing Google Cloud as a cloud infrastructure vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and FedRAMP compliance, reviewing their subprocessor chain, and checking sanctions exposure. ThirdProof automates this across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — no questionnaires or vendor participation required. Your first 5 investigations are free.
How long does a ThirdProof assessment take?+
A ThirdProof assessment completes in an average of 7 minutes. 27 intelligence sources are queried in parallel — sanctions databases, business registries, threat intelligence feeds, certificate transparency logs, and more. The result is a deterministic risk tier with confidence score and audit-ready PDF report.
Is ThirdProof free?+
ThirdProof offers 5 free vendor assessments with no credit card required. Each assessment includes the full report — risk tier, confidence score, individual findings, executive summary, and PDF export. Paid plans start at $399/month for teams that need ongoing vendor monitoring.
Can I use a ThirdProof report as SOC 2 audit evidence?+
Yes. ThirdProof reports are designed to satisfy SOC 2 CC9.2 (vendor risk management) requirements. Each report includes SHA-256 integrity verification, methodology disclosure, source attribution for every finding, and AI content labeling. Auditors can independently verify the report's authenticity and trace each finding to its original source.
How is ThirdProof different from a security questionnaire?+
Security questionnaires require vendor participation, take weeks, and produce self-reported answers. ThirdProof queries 27 independent intelligence sources — no vendor involvement needed. Risk tiers are assigned by a deterministic rules engine (not AI opinion), and every finding links to its original source. You get an audit-ready report in an average of 7 minutes instead of waiting weeks for a questionnaire response.

Google Cloud is in your vendor stack. Can you prove you assessed them?

SOC 2 CC9.2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC all require documented vendor due diligence — not just knowing the answer, but having audit-ready evidence you verified it. Most compliance teams can't produce that documentation on demand.

ThirdProof investigates Google Cloud across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — sanctions screening, cyber posture, SOC 2 verification, FedRAMP status, and more. Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
