Security operations teams are under immense pressure to defend against adversaries who use AI to act with unprecedented speed, scale, and sophistication. To navigate these moments, secure mission-critical workloads, and build confident defense programs, organizations rely on modern security information and event management (SIEM) systems as the backbone of their security operations.
We are proud to announce that Google has been named a Leader in the 2026 IDC MarketScape for Worldwide SIEM Vendor Assessment (#US54126826, June 2026). We believe this recognition reflects our sustained investment and innovation in Google Security Operations, bringing together Mandiant's frontline expertise, comprehensive automation, and advanced AI agents to empower defenders.
According to the report, Google was recognized for several key strengths, including:
The Alert Triage and Investigation agent collects evidence, runs correlated searches, and produces a transparent verdict, reducing the security analyst workload. The additional agents announced at Google Cloud Next extend agentic workflows beyond triage into proactive hunting and rule generation.
Google designs the silicon, runs the infrastructure, develops the Gemini foundation models through DeepMind, and encodes its internal security expertise into agent evaluation loops. Vertical AI integration supports unit economics that would be difficult to achieve through third-party model APIs and gives Google tighter control over the iteration cycle that improves agent accuracy on security-specific tasks.
Curated detection content authored by Mandiant analysts is mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and refreshed on a regular cadence. Customers report that the higher-tier curated rule sets deliver useful detections out of the box.
Search performance over large data volumes is a consistently cited technical strength. The unified data lake, combined with all-time UDM search and multistage search with cross joins, allows analysts to query the full retention period without the performance degradation common on legacy on-premises platforms.
IDC MarketScape vendor analysis model is designed to provide an overview of the competitive fitness of technology and service suppliers in a given market. The research methodology utilizes a rigorous scoring methodology based on both qualitative and quantitative criteria that results in a single graphical illustration of each vendor’s position within a given market. The Capabilities score measures vendor product, go-to-market and business execution in the short-term. The Strategy score measures alignment of vendor strategies with customer requirements in a 3-5-year timeframe. Vendor market share is represented by the size of the circles. Vendor year-over-year growth rate relative to the given market is indicated by a plus, neutral or minus next to the vendor name.
Speed and accuracy are crucial in threat detection and incident response. Google continues to drive security operations innovation to help defenders work smarter, not harder. By deeply embedding Gemini in Google Security Operations, we enable analysts to perform complex natural language searches across vast amounts of security telemetry. We have also added agents such as the Triage and Investigation agent that enhance analyst productivity by accelerating event summarization, dynamically generating detection rules, and building automated response playbooks in seconds instead of hours.
“With Google Security Operations, we’re able to take in large volumes of telemetry, introduce AI into our workflows, and we saw a 97% reduction in alerts,” Daniel Peterpaul, VP, Information Security, Sunrun.
A modern SIEM must go beyond data aggregation; it requires context. Google Threat Intelligence combines Mandiant's frontline expertise, the global reach of the VirusTotal community, and the unparalleled visibility of Google's services and devices into Google Security Operations.
Our applied threat intelligence capability enables security teams to spend less time on manual monitoring and more time contextualizing alerts for better decision-making. Through services like Mandiant Hunt, we integrate our proactive experts directly into Google Security Operations to help defenders search for undetected attacks and adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) before they escalate.
Organizations around the globe are making significant leaps in both the technology they use and the way they think about security operations by partnering with Google. The ability to stitch together security telemetry and threat intelligence gives organizations visibility to full-service recovery and holistic security transformation.
“Our engineers in the SOC are working on high fidelity, true positives only. So, you've got a high fidelity true positive that's fired, and frankly, you want that alarm then to be enriched with as much contextual information as possible, that's the shift that Gemini in SecOps will allow us to get to. We want AI to work in service of our people, and then we want people to use their human brilliance, creativity, big picture problem-solving to think about attack paths and predicting them, and really making our environment a hard target,” Matt Rowe, chief security officer, Lloyds Banking Group.
Organizations that seek to work with a globally capable security leader with strong threat intelligence capabilities and a holistic approach to security operations should consider Google.To learn more about our capabilities and why Google has been named a Leader, read a complimentary excerpt of the 2026 IDC MarketScape for Worldwide SIEM Vendor Assessment here.
