Cybereason teams up with Google Cloud for cloud-native XDR solution

The collaboration will help automate prevention for common attacks, guide analysts through security operations and incident response, and enable threat hunting with precision

Israeli cybersecurity firm Cybereason and Google Cloud announced on Tuesday a joint collaboration between the two companies to create and bring to market Extended Detection and Response (XDR) across endpoints, networks, cloud and workspaces.

 

Cybereason technology analyzes more than 23 trillion security-related events per week, revealing the full attack story across every device, user identity, application and cloud deployment. Meanwhile, Google Cloud’s cybersecurity analytics platform Chronicle ingests, normalizes, and analyzes petabytes of data from the complete IT environment on planetary-scale infrastructure.
