Security News > 2023 > June > Empowering Google security and networking solutions with AI

In this Help Net Security interview, Sunil Potti, GM and VP of Cloud Security at Google Cloud, talks about how new security and networking solutions powered by AI help improve security so Google customers can address their most pressing security challenges and remain ahead of an ever changing threat landscape.
AI plays a significant role in Google Cloud's recently announced new security and networking solutions.
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.
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.
Google Cloud's addition of attack path simulation to Security Command Center Premium offers defenders the opportunity to gain valuable insights into their critical resources and identify vulnerabilities by mimicking how a real-world attacker could exploit security gaps to access high-value assets.
