Google recently introduced Google Threat Intelligence, a comprehensive cyber security information service that combines various security products within the Google ecosystem. This includes Mandiant (acquired in 2022), VirusTotal (acquired in 2012), and further bolstered by the power of Gemini.
Google prides itself on the unmatched visibility offered by Google Threat Intelligence, boasting a trove of security data including data on 4 billion devices, 1.5 billion email accounts, blocking 100 million phishing attacks daily, a VirusTotal user base exceeding 1 million globally, and supplemented by open source intelligence.
This vast data is augmented by a team of security experts from Mandiant who investigate security issues for customer organizations at a rate of 1,100 cases per year, as well as the automated power of Gemini 1.5 Pro which can scan large data sets of 1 million tokens, reducing the time and effort required for security data analysis. Google highlights Gemini’s ability to convert the notorious malware WannaCry’s binary files back into source code for reverse engineering in just 34 seconds.
Google Threat Intelligence is accessible through a website interface where users can search for any security information such as URLs, suspicious file uploads, hacker group information, and assess threats to an organization’s security along with mitigation strategies.
This service is part of Google Cloud and offers three package levels: Standard, Enterprise, and Enterprise+, with pricing not yet disclosed to the public.
TLDR: Google introduces Google Threat Intelligence, an all-encompassing cyber security information service with unparalleled data visibility and powerful tools like Gemini for advanced threat analysis and mitigation.
