Flashpoint & Google partnership to bring Generative AI into security

Flashpoint is expanding its partnership with Google Cloud to deploy next-generation intelligence solutions within the Flashpoint product suite. 

The globally trusted leader in risk intelligence announced that the initiative, which will include generative AI solutions, will revolutionise how organisations detect security threats and reduce risk, in support of better, faster, and more intuitive decision-making.  

As part of this collaboration, Flashpoint is working to leverage Google Cloud’s generative AI technology to move from the Boolean search-based interaction model that the intelligence industry uses today to a natural, conversation-based experience.  

“We are thrilled to work with Google Cloud to leverage their AI expertise in support of the Flashpoint Intelligence Platform and our customers,” said Josh Lefkowitz, CEO of Flashpoint.  

“With this collaboration, we aim to empower organisations with faster and more comprehensive insights into potential cyber, physical, and fraud threats, enabling them to stay one step ahead in the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity.”

By supporting a conversational approach to intelligence research, organisations will be able to maximise the value of their intelligence investment—helping them get more out of their security and intelligence teams, close the cybersecurity skills gap, and rapidly mitigate risk. With past security ML innovations and last year’s acquisition of Mandiant, Google is uniquely positioned to empower security generative AI use cases. 

Flashpoint’s conversational intelligence capability will expand upon the company’s use of Google Cloud Vertex AI services such as Vision AI and Translation AI to provide industry-leading AI-driven intelligence innovations, including the processing and contextualising of images and videos through optical character recognition (OCR) and in-platform video search, as well as the use of Google’s BigQuery and Looker to accelerate enrichment, analysis, and visualisations within the Flashpoint platform.  

These innovations have led to the prevention of millions of dollars of fraud each week, along with the mitigation of physical and cyber risks in industries ranging from financial services, technology, retail, and national security.

Flashpoint and Google Cloud’s partnership expansion demonstrates their shared vision of applying artificial intelligence to risk intelligence, to create more efficient and sustainable solutions for customers to make smarter decisions with data to protect what’s important in the digital era.  

The innovations that result from this partnership will expand Flashpoint’s position as a leader in the risk intelligence market, driving the next wave of technological breakthroughs. This partnership reflects the companies’ dedication to innovation and building a better, connected future.
