Google Cloud, the tech giant’s cloud platform, announced on Friday that it is bringing its artificial intelligence (AI)-powered security operations (SecOps) region to India to comply with India’s data localisation norms. This means that enterprises in the country can now store their Google security operations customer data in the Mumbai region.

“Today’s complex threat landscape and talent shortages require immediate and innovative solutions. Gemini in Google Security Operations is a catalyst to supercharge our customers’ security operations, a game-changer to drive operational excellence with Google’s AI at scale,” said Jyothi Prakash, India Head of Google Cloud Security, in a statement.
 
Gemini for Google Cloud is a new generation of AI assistants for developers, services, and applications that help them work more effectively.
With the new SecOps region in the country, Google Cloud can help more organisations, in both the private and public sectors, reap the benefits of secure cloud infrastructure. The company added that Google Cloud’s security operations platform is designed to give security operations centre (SOC) teams a boost across their detection and response lifecycle.
 
To reduce manual processes across security teams, Google Cloud also announced updates to Gemini in its security operations. By utilising AI, Google Security Operations transforms threat intelligence into actionable insights, thereby enhancing security teams’ ability to detect and mitigate cyber threats effectively.
 
“AI-powered security operations help organisations reduce their cyber risk, get faster at detection and disruption of cyber threats, and improve their efficiencies,” said Sangram Gayal, Partner and Managed Services Leader, Transformation at PwC India.
 
Google recently concluded its biggest annual developers’ event, Google I/O 2024, where it made several announcements on Gemini, Google’s powerful generative AI platform. For example, Google introduced updates to Gemini 1.5 Pro, its AI model that will soon be able to handle even more data. Additionally, the company introduced a new Gemini 1.5 Flash AI model, which is more cost-effective and designed for smaller tasks like summarising conversations, captioning images and videos, and extracting data from large documents.
 
These announcements follow similar events held by Google’s AI competitors. Earlier this week, Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced that its managed services suite, Bedrock, is now available in the AWS Asia Pacific (Mumbai) region. Bedrock, introduced last year, provides foundational models for customers to build and scale their AI applications. The availability of Bedrock in the region will support customers in various sectors to innovate and have flexibility in running and storing applications. Meanwhile, OpenAI launched a new AI model and desktop version of ChatGPT, along with a new user interface.
