Google Cloud and BT have announced a new strategic security partnership targeting a range of joint innovation opportunities.
As a first step, BT becomes an official reseller of Google Chronicle, including its Autonomic Security Operations framework.
The move builds on existing collaboration between the companies across data, cloud migration and AI programs.
As part of the partnership, BT will become a managed services delivery partner for Google’s Autonomic Security Operations (ASO) offering based on Google Chronicle.
“Our partnership brings the best of BT’s experience in deploying Big Data-based security platforms with Google Cloud’s innovative security capabilities to help our multinational customers transform their approaches to cyber risk management in the face of a rapidly changing threat landscape,” said Magali Bohn, Global Director, Partnerships & Channels at Google Cloud Security.
“Combining Google Chronicle’s capabilities with BT’s view of global networks and experience of providing managed security services is a really exciting prospect.
“The ASO solution will help our customers to rapidly identify risks and automatically enhance their cyber defences—providing the speed that’s essential to combating cyber-attacks.
“It represents the first step in our partnership with Google Cloud on cybersecurity, with both companies committed to providing new innovations and solutions that help organisations stay ahead of an increasingly threatening cyber threat landscape,” said Tris Morgan, Managing Director, Security at BT.
