# Cloud VPN Tunnel

Cloud VPN Tunnel in Google Cloud securely connects your on-premises network to your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network through an encrypted IPsec tunnel. It allows private communication between resources across different networks as if they were on the same local network. This resource is commonly used for hybrid cloud setups, extending data centers to the cloud, or securely connecting multiple VPCs.
