“One of the most important bodies of work that we're engaged in is the training and the enablement of the cybersecurity workforce. There are expected to be 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs, globally, by 2025.

“I’m encouraged to see our own ‘Secure by Default’ approach gain momentum across the industry. When you put a device in the hands of a consumer or enterprise, they don’t need to run through a checklist to secure it. Instead, they get the seatbelts, the airbags, the roll bars. This shift from how technology has operated for the last 25 years is a game-changer for our collective security.”

“Security is baked into everything we do, rather than bolted on. But we're in this together. We believe it’s also the responsibility of technology companies and major organizations to push for more secure defaults and user-level customer controls. This shared fate approach extends beyond just Google Cloud and our customers - it affects all the clouds - making industry collaboration critical."
