Protecting the critical infrastructure that we all rely on.
Widespread cyberattacks threaten to disrupt our schools, businesses and government services. We deploy advanced security protections to ensure that society's critical infrastructure is safer with Google.
Our automated threat detection and cybersecurity training help keep small businesses safe and secure from cyber attacks.
We’re preparing individuals with the critical skills needed to fill the growing number of entry-level jobs in the field of cybersecurity.
We’re protecting student and teacher data in school districts nationwide with Chromebooks and Workspace for Education, which are secure by default.
Our cybersecurity leaders reflect on what it takes to ensure a secure future in the face of evolving cyber threats.
'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 by 2025. Our new cybersecurity certificate will enable hundreds of thousands of people to get trained to help energy companies, to help hospitals, to help schools defend themselves.'

'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 that we do, rather than bolted on. But we're in this together. We believe that it’s also the responsibility of technology companies and major organisations 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.'
