Google announces Sec-Gemini v1, a new experimental cybersecurity model (Google Online Security Blog)

Actualités
Posted by Elie Burzstein and Marianna Tishchenko, Sec-Gemini team Today, we’re announcing Sec-Gemini v1, a new experimental AI model focused on advancing cybersecurity AI frontiers.  As outlined a year ago, defenders face the daunting task of securing against all cyber threats, while attackers need to successfully find and exploit only a single vulnerability. This fundamental asymmetry has made securing systems extremely difficult, time consuming and error prone. AI-powered cybersecurity workflows have the potential to help shift the balance back to the defenders by force multiplying cybersecurity professionals like never before.   Effectively powering SecOps workflows requires state-of-the-art reasoning capabilities and extensive current cybersecurity knowledge. Sec-Gemini v1 achieves this by combining Gemini’s advanced capabilities with near real-time cybersecurity knowledge and tooling. This combination allows it to achieve superior performance on key…

Taming the Wild West of ML: Practical Model Signing with Sigstore (Google Online Security Blog)

Actualités
Posted by Mihai Maruseac, Google Open Source Security Team (GOSST) In partnership with NVIDIA and HiddenLayer, as part of the Open Source Security Foundation, we are now launching the first stable version of our model signing library. Using digital signatures like those from Sigstore, we allow users to verify that the model used by the application is exactly the model that was created by the developers. In this blog post we will illustrate why this release is important from Google’s point of view. With the advent of LLMs, the ML field has entered an era of rapid evolution. We have seen remarkable progress leading to weekly launches of various applications which incorporate ML models to perform tasks ranging from customer support, software development, and even performing security critical tasks. However,…
