On April 23, Elastic announced a deep integration with Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) air-gapped, where Elastic is a critical partner providing a security layer for customers. This deep integration provides a hardened architecture for organizations handling highly sensitive, regulated workloads to use Elastic’s agentic security operations platform to combat modern AI-driven cyber threats.
Organizations in highly regulated industries must defend against increasingly sophisticated threats while maintaining strict control over sensitive data. With Google Distributed Cloud air-gapped, a key component of Google’s Sovereign Cloud solutions, this integration brings Google’s cloud services and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities together with Elastic’s agentic security operations platform to fully disconnected, highly secure environments.
“Google Distributed Cloud air-gapped is a fully managed solution that empowers organizations to innovate securely while addressing their most stringent sovereignty and regulatory requirements,” said Rohan Grover, senior director, Product at Google Distributed Cloud. “For organizations requiring an additional layer of security, Elastic’s agentic security operations platform brings enhanced data security and data sovereignty capabilities to customers, helping them to combat modern, AI-driven cyber threats.”
Elastic Security unifies Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and native automation with agentic AI embedded across prevention, detection, and response. The platform enables SOC analysts to be faster and more productive while reducing reliance on complex third-party integrations and minimizing tool sprawl.
Together, these capabilities help customers unlock valuable insights while maintaining operational control to meet the strictest digital sovereignty and regulatory requirements.
“Security teams in highly regulated, air-gapped environments face growing challenges detecting and responding to AI-driven threats while maintaining strict data sovereignty and compliance requirements,” said Mike Nichols, general manager, Security at Elastic. “This integration brings a unified, agentic security operations platform designed to meet those demands.”
