New Way Now: Pfizer is reshaping its security DNA with Google Cloud

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆: Mark Ruiz, head of cybersecurity analytics at Pfizer, shares how Google Cloud is helping the global pharmaceutical giant strengthen its immunity to cybersecurity threats. Using Google Security Operations, Pfizer is finding new ways to stitch together all of its security technologies and protect all of its cloud assets and environments. 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲: After being increasingly targeted by threat actors during the global pandemic, Pfizer sought to implement a modern security information and event management (SIEM) platform. They needed an AI-powered solution that could centralize their diverse security data into a unified view, enabling a more proactive and decisive approach to threat detection, investigation, and response. 𝗦𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Pfizer centralized its security data within Google Security Operations, a cloud-native threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) platform. Purpose-built for modern SecOps, Google Security Operations combines SIEM and SOAR capabilities with built-in threat intelligence from Mandiant, VirusTotal, and Google. Pfizer is also exploring how they can apply the Gemini in Security Operations investigation assistant to their everyday workflows. The Gemini in Security Operations investigation assistant is powered by Google’s next-generation multimodal AI models, and provides natural language for search, contextual summaries, recommended response actions, and detection rule creation. 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀: Now, Pfizer can consolidate all of its security telemetry data and threat intelligence into a single pane of glass, facilitating faster, effective investigations and empowering its teams to respond decisively.
