Defenders wanting to use advanced AI have faced a difficult dilemma: adopt enormous frontier models that could be expensive to deploy and difficult to control across enterprise codebases, or turn to smaller open-weight models that might struggle with complex vulnerability remediation and require teams to build their own tooling and infrastructure from scratch. Until now.

Today, we’re launching our Fairwind Program to bring the best of Google’s AI and cyber defense capabilities to a trusted group of Google Cloud customers, government agencies, and cybersecurity partners, to help them proactively solve cyber risks at scale. As a first step, the Fairwind Program will give defenders access to powerful and advanced Gemini models to help them autonomously find and fix vulnerabilities, protecting critical infrastructure, public services, and national security.

Finding and autonomously fixing vulnerabilities

The Fairwind Program offerings bring together our most advanced cyber model, Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber, with our CodeMender harness, to help defenders find, verify, and fix vulnerabilities at agentic scale. Spotting weaknesses creates awareness and fear; autonomously finding and fixing vulnerabilities delivers security.

CodeMender with Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber delivers the specialized reasoning to write and validate code fixes, at a fraction of the operating cost of traditional frontier models. Instead of taking weeks to manually fix vulnerabilities, defenders can now generate verified, deployment-ready patches in minutes — within an organization’s secure cloud environment.
