AI plays a significant role in Google Cloud’s recently announced new security and networking solutions. Can you share more about how Google’s Security AI Framework has been deployed in these products?
Over the years at Google, we’ve embraced an open and collaborative approach to cybersecurity. Our approach to securing AI systems is no different. Recently, we announced our Security AI Framework, or SAIF. The framework is inspired by the security best practices Google has applied to software development, while incorporating our understanding of security mega-trends and risks specific to AI systems.

We’re already doing a number of things to put SAIF into action, including building industry support; working directly with organizations, including customers and governments to help them understand how to assess AI security risks and mitigate them; sharing insights from Google’s leading threat intelligence teams like Mandiant and TAG on cyber activity involving AI systems; expanding our bug hunters programs to reward and incentivize research around AI safety and security; and continuing to deliver secure AI offerings with partners like GitLab and Cohesity.

As we advance SAIF and announce new security and networking solutions, we’ll continue to share research and explore methods that help to utilize AI securely. Our new products are a continuance of our commitment to delivering secure AI offerings and developing new capabilities to help our customers build secure systems.

Security AI Workbench allows partner plug-ins. How does this openness to third-party integration enhance the functionality and effectiveness of the platform?
By harnessing the power of AI and leveraging the scalability of Google Cloud technology, we not only enhance our own security tools, but also empower the industry as a whole. To achieve this, Google Cloud embraces third party integration to its security partners who share our vision of utilizing generative AI capabilities to effectively tackle enterprise security challenges. The integration of partner plug-ins through our Security AI Workbench facilitates the incorporation of supplementary threat intelligence, workflow enhancements, and other essential security capabilities for enterprises.
