New Way Now: Pfizer is reshaping its security DNA with Google Cloud
22๐ฆ๐๐บ๐บ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐: Mark Ruiz, head of cybersecurity analytics at Pfizer, shares how Google Cloud is helping the global pharmaceutical giant strengthen its immunity to cybersecurity threats. Using Google Security Operations, Pfizer is finding new ways to stitch together all of its security technologies and protect all of its cloud assets and environments.
๐๐ต๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ฒ๐ป๐ด๐ฒ: After being increasingly targeted by threat actors during the global pandemic, Pfizer sought to implement a modern security information and event management (SIEM) platform. They needed an AI-powered solution that could centralize their diverse security data into a unified view, enabling a more proactive and decisive approach to threat detection, investigation, and response.
๐ฆ๐ผ๐น๐๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: Pfizer centralized its security data within Google Security Operations, a cloud-native threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) platform. Purpose-built for modern SecOps, Google Security Operations combines SIEM and SOAR capabilities with built-in threat intelligence from Mandiant, VirusTotal, and Google. Pfizer is also exploring how they can apply the Gemini in Security Operations investigation assistant to their everyday workflows. The Gemini in Security Operations investigation assistant is powered by Googleโs next-generation multimodal AI models, and provides natural language for search, contextual summaries, recommended response actions, and detection rule creation.
๐ฅ๐ฒ๐๐๐น๐๐: Now, Pfizer can consolidate all of its security telemetry data and threat intelligence into a single pane of glass, facilitating faster, effective investigations and empowering its teams to respond decisively.

โโWeโre using Google Security Operations as the central point of all of our data. It's very nice with VirusTotal, all of the Mandiant stuff, stitched together into this one single pane of glass. When you run a search, all of the data just pops up from a contextual enrichment perspective โฆ and now we're using the Gemini investigation assistant that pulls it all together right away. I think it's going to uplift our talent to get to the threat more quickly.โ
- Mark Ruiz, Head of Cybersecurity Analytics, Pfizer
โโHistorically, our legacy SIEM, we had to feed it a lot of the contextual enrichment and all of that threat intelligence stuff. It was data engineering to make it sing, where on the Google side, the product is more baked in, purpose-built for us to use it. Itโs so intuitive and the speed was certainly really beneficial for us as well.โ

โWith Google Security Operations, Pfizer has a comprehensive solution to manage the growing volume, velocity, and variety of today's security attacks. The Google Cloud team partnered closely with Pfizer, ensuring Google SecOps delivered the capabilities Pfizer needed and requested. Looking forward, Pfizer sees generative AI agents like Gemini in Security Operations as key to the next-generation of threat detection, investigation and response, accelerating threat identification and investigation while freeing analysts to focus on their most valuable work.
