In this blog series, Google Public Sector leaders share their expertise on how AI is revolutionizing government services. We’ll explore the ways our AI solutions are adaptive, secure, responsible, and intelligent – enabling agencies to serve constituents better than ever before. Explore our thought leadership hub to explore innovative ideas for public service.
Security is paramount for public sector organizations. With the growing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in government, ensuring that these powerful tools are secure by design is crucial. Google Cloud understands this, and has built security directly into our AI solutions to protect your sensitive data and critical operations.
Secure AI: What does it mean? Simply put, secure AI means that safeguards are built into the AI systems themselves. It involves:
Protecting AI models: Ensuring AI models are resistant to manipulation and misuse.Safeguarding data: Keeping the data used to train and run AI systems confidential and protected from unauthorized access.Ensuring transparency: Making it clear how AI decisions are made, so they can be understood and trusted.
Google Cloud’s approach to secure AI: Google Cloud takes a multi-layered approach to securing AI for the public sector:
Zero trust architecture: We assume no user or device is inherently trustworthy, requiring constant verification and authentication.Secure software development: We follow strict security practices when building and deploying AI models.Data encryption: Your data is encrypted both in transit and at rest, safeguarding it from unauthorized access.Robust infrastructure: Our secure cloud infrastructure is designed to withstand a wide range of threats.
Google Cloud’s AI powered security for public sector
Our solutions, developed for government agencies, leverage Google’s AI and Mandiant’s expertise to protect sensitive information and AI-powered workloads. Our AI is developed to empower the public sector with a suite of tools designed to enhance security and protect sensitive data:
Gemini in Security Operations: Simplifies threat detection and response with natural language search, automatic event summarization, and actionable recommendations.Gemini in Security Command Center: Helps teams of all skill levels quickly understand and address security alerts, preventing potential attacks before they occur.Google Workspace: Integrates AI into everyday productivity tools, helping protect against threats like phishing and data leaks.
This combination of AI-powered security solutions and robust infrastructure helps public sector organizations build a comprehensive defense strategy, ensuring data integrity and operational resilience in the face of evolving cyber threats.
Secure AI in action: New Jersey
Real-world examples demonstrate the power of Google Cloud’s secure AI in the public sector. For instance, the State of New Jersey is using AI to identify previously unseen threats and streamline risk assessments, improving their overall security posture. Michael Geraghty, CISO of the State of New Jersey and Director of the NJ Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness, shared valuable insights during his session “Secure the Future: How Government Agencies Lead Cybersecurity Innovation” at Google Cloud Next ’24. He emphasized how their vast data collection underpins the effectiveness of their AI models. These models go beyond traditional tools, identifying previously missed threats and empowering data scientists to analyze vast datasets efficiently. Furthermore, his team is pioneering the use of AI to streamline risk assessment reports, demonstrating the tangible benefits AI brings to securing public services.
