Google Cloud has outlined an AI security strategy built around combining its Gemini models with Wiz, CodeMender and Mandiant in a single threat-defence platform. Francis deSouza, Chief Operating Officer of Google Cloud and President of Security Products, set out the case as cyber attacks become faster and more automated, pointing to a recent incident identified by Google Threat Intelligence Group as the first known zero-day exploit built entirely with AI. The approach is intended to give defenders an advantage through deeper operational context, linking information about where assets sit, how applications behave, which identities have access, who owns a service and how code changes can remove risk. Google Cloud set out a four-stage framework: prepare, using Wiz to map exposed applications, APIs, identities and runtime environments; scan and prioritise, combining broader scanning with lighter models and deeper analysis with Gemini; remediation, using CodeMender inside developer tools to generate code fixes; and monitoring, where AI agents tied to Wiz look for vulnerabilities and anomalies. Google Cloud cited Morgan Stanley as an example of an organisation using a similar model.
