The model draws on extensive data sources, including Google Threat Intelligence (GTI), the Open Source Vulnerabilities (OSV) database, and Mandiant Threat Intelligence, to deliver unparalleled performance in critical areas such as incident root cause analysis, threat analysis, and vulnerability impact assessment. Elie Burzstein and Marianna Tishchenko from the Sec-Gemini team unveiled a new AI model designed to help cybersecurity defenders tackle the growing complexity of cyber threats using advanced AI. It outperformed competitors by at least 11% on the CTI-MCQ benchmark, a leading measure of cybersecurity threat intelligence, and by at least 10.5% on the CTI-Root Cause Mapping (CTI-RCM) benchmark, which evaluates a model’s ability to interpret vulnerability descriptions, pinpoint root causes, and classify them according to the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) taxonomy. Google has made a big move to fight cyber threats by announcing Sec-Gemini v1, an experimental AI model designed to revolutionize cybersecurity. When asked about “Salt Typhoon,” a known threat actor, the model not only correctly identified it as such something not all AI models can do but also delivered a detailed description enriched by Mandiant Threat Intelligence data. With Sec-Gemini v1, Google is positioning itself at the forefront of the AI cybersecurity frontier, offering a glimpse into a future where defenders are better equipped to stay ahead of attackers. In a blog post, the Sec-Gemini team highlighted the inherent asymmetry in cybersecurity: defenders must protect against all possible attacks, while attackers need only exploit a single vulnerability. Sec-Gemini v1 seeks to shift the advantage back to defenders by “force multiplying” cybersecurity workflows with AI-powered tools. Built on the foundation of Google’s Gemini model, Sec-Gemini v1 integrates near real-time cybersecurity knowledge with state-of-the-art reasoning capabilities. Additionally, Sec-Gemini v1 analyzed vulnerabilities linked to Salt Typhoon, pulling data from OSV and contextualizing it with threat actor insights.
