Google Cloud Unveils New Convergence-Focused Security Features
SiliconANGLE, Wednesday, August 21st, 2024
Google LLC today announced several new security features and capabilities at its annual Google Cloud Security Summit that are aimed at 'reimagining cybersecurity through the power of convergence.'
Convergence was a key theme at the annual conference, with Google intentionally choosing strategic capabilities that can have the largest impact on security posture and programs. Those capabilities are about driving a platform with core security functions of detection, investigation and response, coupled with risk management for where business-critical applications and data increasingly live.
Google detailed the broader market and how Google Security Operations are facilitating things such as hackathons and new processes to help build a strong security foundation, with artificial intelligence thrown in for good measure. More specifically, Google Security announced three main new capabilities - Mandiant Custom Threat Hunt, new security command center capabilities and Chrome Enterprise Premium updates.
