Google wants to revolutionize cyber security. What is the Google Threat Intelligence service

0 readings

Google launched at the RSA Conference in San Francisco a new service, Google Threat Intelligence, which aims to revolutionize the way companies understand and respond to cyber threats. This service is the result of the integration of Mandiant’s experience in combating cyber threats, the resources of the VirusTotal community and the processing capabilities of the Gemini 1.5 Pro model, developed by Google DeepMind.

Google Mandiant, recognized for its cyber threat defense services, was acquired by Google in September 2022. VirusTotal, part of Chronicle, a subsidiary of Google, makes significant contributions to malware detection and collaboration between the antivirus industry and security professionals , writes Google.

How Gemini 1.5 Pro helps

Gemini 1.5 Pro, a multimodal model, is capable of processing and understanding various types of data, facilitating complex threat analysis by understanding their context. This model is a key element in the new intelligence infrastructure, enabling conversational searches of the vast database of threat intelligence.

Google’s Threat Intelligence service benefits from billions of signals from devices and emails, giving it the ability to provide crucial details about current and emerging threats. In addition, it includes an AI agent called “Gemini in Threat Intelligence” that simplifies access to information and protection against threats.

Among the main features of the service are “Google threat insights”, which provides protection for 4 billion devices and 1.5 billion email accounts, blocking 100 million phishing attempts every day. “Frontline intelligence” enables the Mandiant team to analyze attacker tactics and techniques, and “Human and crowdsourced intelligence” benefits from close monitoring of “threat actor” groups and input from an extended global community.
