"We use a global BigQuery database to run sales analytics across our US and European divisions. We thought our data was secure, but our European compliance officer discovered that our US-based data scientists are running queries that pull un-redacted European customer phone numbers and names, violating EU data-export rules.".
Your global database has a massive security leak. Even though your files are stored in Europe, your US employees can easily query and view the raw private data from their desks in New York. In the eyes of European privacy regulators, this is an illegal data export, and they will fine you for failing to lock down your databases.
Storing data in a regional cloud bucket is useless if global database roles permit cross-border query execution, as remote read access constitutes a "transfer" under European data protection laws.
We enforce strict VPC Service Controls (VPC-SC) and IAM Sandboxing. The proprietary infrastructure configuration isolates the European BigQuery tables within a distinct, localized VPC Service Controls security perimeter. We configure strict, hardcoded "deny-all" rules that block US-based service accounts and identities from ever reading, querying, or accessing the raw European datasets. US analysts can only query anonymized, aggregated, and pseudonymized metadata streams, eliminating data-export risks natively.
Allowing US data scientists to read raw European datasets constitutes an illegal data export. VALZOX deploys localized VPC Service Controls and strict deny-all IAM sandboxing to limit cross-border queries to anonymized metadata.
