**GlobalProtect Cloud Service Documentation Has a New Home!**

You can now find all technical documentation for GlobalProtect Cloud Service [in one spot](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs.html).

![](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/GPCS1-500x430.png)

You'll also notice a few additional updates:

* **A reorganized** [**Administrator's Guide**](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs/globalprotect-cloud-service-admin) that describes how to plan, install, set up, and configure GlobalProtect cloud service to secure your network.
* **A new** [**Integration Guide**](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs/globalprotect-cloud-service-integration) with vendor-specific tasks that show you how you use GlobalProtect cloud service to secure your SD-WAN and public cloud deployments.

In addition, we also recently released GlobalProtect cloud service 1.3.1 which includes improvements to make onboarding and implementation easier.

**GlobalProtect Cloud Service 1.3.1 Release Highlights:**

Here are some feature highlights. See the [Release Notes](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs/globalprotect-cloud-service-release-notes/globalprotect-cloud-service/features-in-globalprotect-cloudservice) for a complete list of new features.

**Region Selection** -- Gives you a graphic list of all available regions where you can [deploy your mobile user locations](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs/globalprotect-cloud-service-admin/global-protect-cloud-service-for-remote-networks/configure-the-gp-cloud-service-for-remote-networks), which gives you more granular control over deployed regions and allows you to exclude regions as required by your policy or industry regulations.

![](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/GPCS2-500x304.png)

**Reduced IP Address Pool Requirement for Mobile Users** -- Reduces the [minimum subnet you can specify](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs/globalprotect-cloud-service-admin/global-protect-cloud-service-for-mobile-users/specify-ip-address-pools-for-mobile-users) for an IP address pool for mobile users.

[**Predefined IPSec Tunnel Configurations**](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs/globalprotect-cloud-service-admin/global-protect-cloud-service-for-remote-networks/quick-configs-for-remote-network-deployments/use-predefined-ipsec-templates-to-onboard-service-and-remote-nework-connections) -- Upgrading the Cloud Services plugin automatically adds predefined IPSec tunnel profiles for some common third-party IPSec and SD-WAN devices, and a set of generic templates to use when those profiles don't apply.

[**Clientless VPN Reverse Proxy for SaaS Security**](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/gpcs/globalprotect-cloud-service-admin/global-protect-cloud-service-for-mobile-users/quick-configs-for-mobile-user-deployments/configure-vpn-reverse-proxy-for-saas-security) -- In conjunction with [Aperture](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/aperture/aperture-admin/get-started-with-aperture/configure-unsanctioned-device-access-control), allows you to control unsanctioned and employee-owned device access to your network and redirect device traffic to GlobalProtect cloud service for inspection without putting your network or data at risk.

**Clientless VPN Portal** -- This release supports [Clientless VPN](https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/globalprotect/8-1/globalprotect-admin/globalprotect-clientless-vpn).

**Support for Overlapping Subnets for Remote Networks in the Same Region** -- A new Overlapped Subnets selection allows you to deploy remote network locations with overlapping subnets in the same region (for example, for a guest network at a retail store) for internet outbound only.
