a bit ignorant in this area, but how is this functionally different than Google Cloud IAP?

It’s not. We acknowledge that in our blog post, and our approach was definitely influenced by the BeyondCorp philosophy.

However google IAP requires that your infrastructure is all in Google cloud.

Whilst we do use GCP, most of BuzzFeed’s infra is in AWS, we needed a solution which worked for both.
