- Google Cloud is adding new features to their zero trust access solution, BeyondCorp Enterprise which will enable identity and context-aware access to non-web applications running in Google Cloud and non-Google Cloud environments. They also claim to be making it easier for admins to diagnose access failure, triage events, and unblock users with the new Policy Troubleshooter feature.

Google also announced a new collaboration with Cybereason to deliver a cloud-native XDR solution . The intent is to automate prevention for common attacks, guide analysts through security operations and incident response, and enables arguably faster threat hunting.
- They are also enhancing the integration between Chronicle (a SaaS SIEM built on core Google infrastructure that provides security analytics at the speed) and Security Command Center (SCC) on GCP to allow for centralized alerts and investigative workflows across the two platforms, and enables threat-specific pivots by enriching SCC alerts with intelligence on associated threat actors and entities.
- Google is also strengthening their protection of sensitive data through Automatic DLP (data loss prevention) which is in preview and ensuring encryption of data in transit using Ubiquitous Data Encryption, External Key Management, and Cloud Storage products.
