In the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence, Google Cloud is positioning itself as a leader in both technological innovation and cybersecurity. Mark Johnston, the head of security, networking, and collaboration for Google Cloud in the Asia-Pacific region, recently shared insights into how the company is approaching AI development and protection.

Google's approach goes beyond just creating AI models. They've developed sophisticated tools like the Gemini AI model and their seventh-generation Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) called Ironwood. These technologies allow Google to not only create advanced AI systems but also to protect them. For instance, they can scan billions of applications on the Play Store daily, something that would be impossible through manual methods.

The company is also focusing on helping governments and businesses understand and safely implement AI technologies. They're collaborating with startups, particularly in regions like South Korea, to develop secure AI platforms. Google's strategy includes an open-source approach to security, with protocols designed to help organizations maintain information sovereignty while complying with local regulations. Their recent acquisition of cybersecurity startup Wiz underscores their commitment to making AI security a fundamental aspect of their technological ecosystem.
