A security engineer is designing an application-layer intrusion detection strategy for a mission-critical financial processing workload running across multiple zones in a single Google Cloud region. The workload experiences a sustained traffic volume of 12 Gbps, requires deep Layer 7 inspection of both ingress/egress and east-west intra-subnet lateral communications for malware and command-and-control activity, and must identify applications regardless of the ports used.
During testing, specific benign internal maintenance tasks triggered false-positive alerts against standard intrusion signatures.
Which configuration should the security engineer deploy to inspect this application traffic and tune the detection profile?
