Enabling a more secure cloud with our partners

Security is top of mind for every organization, at every stage of your cloud journey, whether you’re just beginning to migrate a few applications or running entire stacks of mission-critical workloads in the cloud.At Google Cloud, we think of security through three lenses: Security of the cloud—Providing a highly secure foundation to build on. Security in the cloud—Helping to make sure your apps and data are better protected against threats with advanced and easy to use tools. Security beyond our cloud—Using solutions like Chronicle powered by Google Cloud infrastructure to help you protect your systems wherever they may reside, be that on-premises or in other clouds.We understand that many customers have dedicated tools and strategic relationships with the industry’s leading security vendors. We want to meet you where you are, allowing you to preserve your investments, as well as benefit from functionality you can’t get on other clouds. That’s why we work closely with partners in the security industry to help you better secure your applications and information.Today, we are excited to announce more than a dozen new solutions and security partner integrations with Google Cloud that further advance our capabilities.
