Google said it launched the Fairwind Program for a trusted group of Google Cloud customers, government agencies and cybersecurity partners. The program initially provides access to Gemini 3.8 Flash Cyber and the CodeMender harness, which Google says can find, verify and write code fixes for vulnerabilities within an organization's secure cloud environment. Google said participating organizations must limit access to internal security, incident-response or penetration-testing teams and use protections including multi-factor authentication.
