Google is also introducing new AI offerings and services to help organizations secure AI systems effectively.

“I think you're going to see the mindset of the CISO come to life.” As #AWSreInforce kicks off, cybersecurity and #GenerativeAI are taking center stage 🔐🤖 According to Ryan Orsi from AWS, generative AI is the thread tying together major security trends like identity, resilience, and cloud observability. Ryan highlights 4 key security domains partners are addressing: ⚔️ Offense: Red teaming, pen testing, user training 🛡️ Defense: Developing security software & services ⚡ Implementation: Deploying security controls 🧭 Governance: Managing security risks & compliance With gen AI's rapid evolution, the need for skilled security partners has never been greater. AWS is closely collaborating with its partner community to help organizations adopt this "new element" safely and securely. #CloudSecurity #CyberSecurity #ChannelPartners #ManagedServices

AI use cases in Security that can make an impact NOW! Nice Article by Google Cloud's own CISO, Phil Venables!

#AI can dramatically change #cybersecurity and benefit defenders by moving faster, automating tasks that, until now, have required laborious toil from security experts. Three key use cases are: - #Malware analysis - Summarization and natural-language searches for security operations teams - AI to speed up the patching process" Phil Venables, Google Cloud Intelliswift Software, Google Cloud Partners, Google Cloud Security
