Combining Accenture Security Services and Google Cloud Technology
As part of the collaboration, Accenture is enhancing its adaptive Detection and Response offering and MxDR service by integrating new capabilities and technologies, the companies said. These include integration with the Chronicle platform to ingest and search network and security telemetry and provide analysis and context on security risks and vulnerabilities and integration with Mandiant threat intelligence. In addition, Accenture will be the first company to utilize the Google Cloud Security AI Workbench, powered by a specialized, security large language model (LLM), Sec-PaLM, that leverages Google’s visibility into the threat landscape and Mandiant’s frontline intelligence on vulnerabilities, malware, threat indicators, and more, the companies said. By integrating generative AI within the service, Accenture aims to significantly accelerate incident detection, analysis, and response, mitigating the impact of security incidents.Accenture and Google Cloud Partnership: Executive Insights
