# Google case study: How we approach security at scale with Google Cloud

Our case study with Google Cloud Platforms to show how we value security at Ravelin.

Security is important to us here at Ravelin.

Which is why we turned to Google to host our cloud services.

Google’s open-source compatibility meant it was easy for us to migrate our entire infrastructure onto GCP. The platform ensures high availability with autoscaling, so we can handle spikes in traffic in a cost-effective way, thanks to customer friendly pricing. Because [fraud](https://www.ravelin.com/insights/online-payment-fraud) is a global issue, Google’s global network allows us to deploy closer to clients without latency problems.

Our [CTO Lenny](http://ravelin.com/people) was interviewed by Google to talk about the importance of security and protection at Ravelin and how we use their cloud services. Watch the short video below to get a glimpse into the business and a sneak peak into life at Ravelin HQ.
