- **ALTS**: gRPC supports
[ALTS](https://cloud.google.com/security/encryption-in-transit/application-layer-transport-security)
as a transport security mechanism, if the application is running on
[Google Cloud Platform (GCP)](https://cloud.google.com).
[Compute Engine](https://cloud.google.com/compute) or
