Securing air-gapped environments with Elastic on Google Distributed Cloud

Elastic Security has become the embedded security layer for Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) air-gapped environments, providing an AI-driven defense platform for sectors like government, defense, and finance that require operations disconnected from the public internet. This collaboration aims to address the increasing threat from adversaries using AI to breach isolated environments through means like supply chain compromises and insider access. Elastic Security integrates prevention, detection, investigation, and response into a single platform, leveraging AI to enhance security operations without compromising the isolation of air-gapped networks. It uses local AI models to ensure sovereignty and maintains strong defensive capabilities without needing cloud connectivity. This move follows previous partnerships aimed at standardizing cybersecurity measures and demonstrates Elastic's commitment to protecting sensitive workloads by offering comprehensive security operations without per-endpoint pricing constraints.
