MEUDON, France, Sept 28 —Thales today announced an expanded collaboration with Google Cloud to help enterprises address emerging security and governance challenges associated with agentic AI, bringing integrated protection, visibility, and policy enforcement to AI-driven workflows on Google Cloud.
The integration of Thales AI Security Fabric with Google Cloud Gemini Enterprise helps organizations apply security, governance, and visibility across interactions among users, agents, models, and tools in real time.
“Enterprises are moving from AI assistants to AI agents that can autonomously take action, make decisions, and interact with critical business systems. This requires a fundamentally different approach to security,” Eva Rudin, Senior Vice President, Cybersecurity Products, at Thales, said. “By expanding our collaboration with Google Cloud, we are helping organizations build the necessary trust with security and governance as the foundation required for the next generation of enterprise AI.”
As enterprises move beyond AI experimentation and begin deploying autonomous agents at scale, traditional security approaches are struggling to keep pace. Unlike conventional applications that operate within predefined workflows, AI agents can reason, plan, decide and act with other agents dynamically, creating new attack surfaces and governance challenges.
According to industry analysts, securing agentic AI has emerged as one of the most pressing challenges facing enterprise AI adoption, as organizations seek to balance innovation with security, compliance, and trust.
