BBVA and Google Cloud announced a new strategic partnership to transform the bank's security strategy by optimizing and improving its security infrastructure.
BBVA is the first bank in Europe to deploy Chronicle, Google Cloud's security analytics platform that allows teams to store and analyze all their security data in one place to detect and investigate threats at scale.
BBVA will incorporate Google Cloud´s innovative artificial intelligence capabilities into its security strategy and shape its "Security Operations Center of the Future."
"This partnership represents a leap forward for the bank, and allows us to be at the forefront in preventing threats to the security of our financial infrastructure and our clients," said Álvaro Garrido, Chief Security Officer, BBVA. "The platform surprised us in its ability to quickly and accurately mitigate possible threats. Google Cloud's Chronicle meets our expectations and will be a magnificent partner in the transformation of our security posture, just as Google Cloud has been in other areas of the bank."
"The Chronicle platform was built to help companies like BBVA improve its security infrastructure, leveraging the speed and scalability of Google Cloud's technology," said Derek White, VP Global Financial Services Industry, Google Cloud.
BBVA is using Google Workspace, along with other services from Google Cloud, to promote a new, safe, and more agile collaborative way of working among its employees.
