This page shows you how to protect your Filestore instances with a
service perimeter using VPC Service Controls.
VPC Service Controls protect against data exfiltration and provide an extra
layer of security for your instances. For more information about
VPC Service Controls, see
Overview of VPC Service Controls.
Once the Filestore API is protected by a service perimeter,
Filestore API requests coming from clients outside of the perimeter
must have the proper access level rules.
