To connect GCP logs with Panther, it's recommended to use the Pub/Sub Data Transport source with a log sink, as it results in the lowest latency—roughly five minutes.
Set a default Data Access audit logging configuration for your Google Cloud services:
In your GCP console, navigate to the IAM & Admin service. In the navigation bar, click Audit Logs.
Click Set Default Configuration.
In the Log Types tab, check the boxes for the following types: Admin Read, Data Read, and Data Write.
Click Save.
These instructions for setting a default Data Access audit log configuration for your Google Cloud services are also found in the GCP documentation: Set the default configuration.
Step 1: Create a Google Cloud source in Panther
In the left-hand navigation bar of your Panther Console, click Configure > Log Sources.
Click Create New.
Search for "GCP" then click the Google Cloud tile.
In the slide-out panel, in the Transport Mechanism dropdown in the upper right corner, select Google Cloud Pub/Sub.
It is possible to use any of the Data Transport options, but is recommended to use Pub/Sub in conjunction with a log sink, which you will configure in the next step.
Follow the Panther documentation for configuring your selected Data Transport.

GCP.HTTPLoadBalancer
External HTTP(S) Load Balancing distributes HTTP and HTTPS traffic to backends hosted on a variety of Google Cloud platforms (such as Compute Engine, Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Cloud Storage, and so on), as well as external backends connected over the internet or via hybrid connectivity. HTTP(S) load balancing logs provide information for monitoring and debugging web traffic.
