Elastic announced a deep integration with Google Distributed Cloud 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 capabilities together with Elastic?s agentic security operations platform to fully disconnected, highly secure environments. 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. Within the Google Distributed Cloud air-gapped environments, Elastic Security provides: Data sovereignty and compliance: Helps organizations meet the most stringent regulatory requirements by implementing security controls at the application and data layers, including support for log retention and data visibility. Simplified security across complex environments: Reduces visibility gaps and tool sprawl by unifying security capabilities into a single platform, lowering operational overhead and complexity.
Enhanced SOC analyst operations with native AI: Improves analyst efficiency through agentic capabilities, such as Attack Discovery and AI Assistant, leveraging Google?s LLMs in air-gapped environments. Elastic is already securing highly sensitive environments at scale. In December 2025, Elastic partnered with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and ECS to standardize cybersecurity monitoring across federal agencies.
CISA is using Elastic to deliver SIEM-as-a-Service across Federal Civilian Executive Branch Agencies, helping reduce costs associated with data access and retention. Google Distributed Cloud air-gapped with Elastic Security will be generally available to customers in May 2026.
