PwC India and Google Cloud today announced their partnership to deliver Google Security Operations, a modern, AI-powered SecOps platform, to organizations across India to address threats through frontline intelligence, expertise, and AI-infused technology.
India has a rapidly evolving threat landscape, and both the public and private sector organizations need to detect, investigate, and respond to threats faster. According to the M-Trends 2024 Report, attackers are focusing on evasion in an effort to maintain persistence on networks for as long as possible, attackers are increasingly targeting edge devices, leveraging “living off the land” techniques, and exploiting zero day vulnerabilities.
This collaboration aims to help secure organizations in India with Google Security Operations, which is infused with Google’s unparalleled visibility into the global threat landscape, combined with the capabilities of PwC’s state-of-the-art security operations and niche threat intelligence team. This joint initiative will empower security teams to help defend against today’s and tomorrow’s threats and respond with speed and precision. With Google Cloud’s new Security Operations region in India, customers have data residency controls, which is particularly important for security-savvy organizations.
With an evolving threat landscape, it is imperative for organizations in India to enhance their threat intelligence capabilities and stay ahead of the curve on cyber resilience. We believe this collaboration between PwC India and Google Cloud could play a transformative role in supporting businesses to derive optimal value from their cloud investments and scale with confidence and agility,” said Sangram Gayal, Partner & Managed Services Leader – Transformation at PwC India.
