  • Balancing Artificial Intelligence And Human Expertise

Foresite Cybersecurity is adding Wiz to its Google Cloud security services, expanding its work across cloud risk management and security operations. The company, named the 2026 Google Cloud Security Partner of the Year for North America, has also reached Premier tier in the Wiz Partner Alliance Services Program and joined the Wiz Partner Alliance Managed Service Provider Program.

The expanded services build on Foresite’s experience deploying and operating Google Cloud security tools. By combining Wiz’s cloud and AI security platform with Google Cloud’s security portfolio, Foresite aims to connect cloud risk findings with security operations center (SOC) investigations and response. Shared context, coordinated workflows, and clear ownership are intended to help organizations move from identifying risks to taking action.

Wiz and Google Cloud security operations

Foresite’s services cover assessment, implementation, and ongoing operations for the Wiz AI Application Protection Platform (AI-APP). Organizations can use the services to improve existing deployments, add platform capabilities, or manage daily operations, with support tailored to their environments and priorities.

A key part of the service is integrating Wiz with Google Security Operations

A key part of the service is integrating Wiz with Google Security Operations. The connection brings cloud risk findings and runtime detections into SOC investigation and response workflows. Foresite also provides 24/7 managed detection and response from its Cyber Fusion Centers, combining automated investigation with practitioner oversight of high-impact response actions.

The company said its Premier designation and participation in the Wiz managed service provider program reflect investment in platform delivery expertise and completed customer engagements.

"The opportunity is to connect what teams know about cloud risk with how they investigate and respond to threats," said Jeremy Hehl, Chief Evangelist at Foresite. "We're building on our experience across Google Cloud security to help customers bring Wiz into that operating model, with the expertise to deploy it and the ongoing support to make it effective."

Cloud risk visibility and remediation

Foresite’s Wiz services include deployment and management intended to provide agentless visibility across cloud and AI environments. Its analysts use the Wiz Security Graph to assess misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, identities, and data exposures, helping turn security context into prioritized actions.

The service also includes remediation support. Foresite says it works with customers to address critical risks at their root cause and continuously enforce compliance while supporting ongoing innovation.

"As AI models change how software is built and secured, security teams must now adapt their operating models to defend at machine speed. Wiz provides the context-driven cloud and AI security to protect everything organizations build and run," said Andy Ritchie, Vice President, Global Channels and Alliances, Wiz. "Our partners are critical to delivering this value, and the Premier tier represents the absolute highest level of technical competency, training, and accreditation in the Wiz platform. Foresite has proven their deep commitment to this standard, rapidly qualifying their engineers to ensure our joint customers have a trusted partner to defend their operations day to day."

Brian Carlton, Global Director, Partner Solutions Architecture, Wiz, said "Context is what makes cloud risk actionable, and the Wiz Security Graph is where that context lives. What sets Foresite apart is that the team deploying Wiz is also the team running the security operations. For most organizations those are two separate programs, and the gap between them is where cloud security often stalls."

OpenVPN deploys Wiz across multiple clouds

OpenVPN, a provider of connectivity products, has standardized its cloud security on Wiz

OpenVPN, a provider of connectivity products, has standardized its cloud security on Wiz, with Foresite responsible for deployment and operations. OpenVPN runs production workloads across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. It sought a security approach that could provide a consolidated view of risk across its cloud environments, identify code issues before deployment, and connect runtime detection to response.

Foresite introduced Wiz Cloud, Code, and Defend in phases, validating coverage at each layer before moving to the next. The company now operates Wiz as a managed service, alongside security operations for OpenVPN using Google Security Operations, which Foresite has supported since 2025.

"Our production estate spans more than one cloud, and the risk that matters is rarely confined to one of them. We chose Wiz because the Security Graph gives us one picture of that risk, and we chose Foresite to engineer and run it because they already operated our security operations on Google Security Operations and understood how findings needed to reach the people who act on them," said Brian Litzinger, Chief Information Security Officer at OpenVPN.

"The phased rollout meant every layer was proven before the next one went live. What changed with continuous operations is that cloud risk stopped being a report we review and became part of how our SOC investigates and responds in Google Security Operations every day. For a lean security team, that is the difference between knowing about exposure and closing it."

Show full press release

Foresite Cybersecurity, the 2026 Google Cloud Security Partner of the Year for North America, announces the expansion of its cloud security services to include Wiz, alongside its achievement of Premier tier in the Wiz Partner Alliance Services Program and participation in the Wiz Partner Alliance Managed Service Provider Program. The expansion builds on Foresite's experience deploying and operating the Google Cloud security stack, helping enterprises connect cloud risk management with security operations.

By combining the power of Wiz's cloud and AI security platform with Google Cloud's security portfolio, Foresite helps enterprises translate those capabilities into a cohesive security program. By connecting cloud security and SOC teams through shared context, coordinated workflows and clear ownership, Foresite helps customers move from identifying cloud risk to investigating threats and taking action.

AI security platform

Foresite's services span assessment, implementation and ongoing operations across the Wiz AI Application Protection Platform (AI-APP). Enterprises can engage Foresite to strengthen existing deployments, introduce new capabilities or manage day-to-day platform operations, with services tailored to their environment and priorities.

A central part of this approach is the integration of Wiz with Google Security Operations, connecting cloud risk findings and runtime detections with SOC investigation and response. Foresite supports these operations around the clock through 24/7 managed detection and response operated from its Cyber Fusion Centers, combining automated investigation with practitioner oversight of high-impact response actions.

Combining automated investigation

Foresite's Premier designation and participation in the Wiz Partner Alliance Managed Service Provider Program reflect its investment in delivery expertise across the Wiz platform and its completed customer engagements.

"The opportunity is to connect what teams know about cloud risk with how they investigate and respond to threats," said Jeremy Hehl, Chief Evangelist at Foresite. "We're building on our experience across Google Cloud security to help customers bring Wiz into that operating model, with the expertise to deploy it and the ongoing support to make it effective."

Continuously enforces compliance

Key benefits include:

  • Complete visibility and onboarding: Foresite fully deploys and manages Wiz to deliver agentless visibility across the cloud and AI environments.
  • Expert risk prioritization: Using the Wiz Security Graph, Foresite analysts evaluate misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, identities, and data exposures to turn security context into clear, actionable priorities.
  • Accelerated remediation: By pairing direct remediation support with the Wiz platform, Foresite resolves critical risks at the root cause and continuously enforces compliance, without slowing innovation.

Protect everything organizations

"As AI models change how software is built and secured, security teams must now adapt their operating models to defend at machine speed. Wiz provides the context-driven cloud and AI security to protect everything organizations build and run," said Andy Ritchie, Vice President, Global Channels and Alliances, Wiz. "Our partners are critical to delivering this value, and the Premier tier represents the absolute highest level of technical competency, training, and accreditation in the Wiz platform. Foresite has proven their deep commitment to this standard, rapidly qualifying their engineers to ensure our joint customers have a trusted partner to defend their operations day to day."

Brian Carlton, Global Director, Partner Solutions Architecture, Wiz, said "Context is what makes cloud risk actionable, and the Wiz Security Graph is where that context lives. What sets Foresite apart is that the team deploying Wiz is also the team running the security operations. For most organizations those are two separate programs, and the gap between them is where cloud security often stalls."

Highest level of technical competency

OpenVPN, whose connectivity products protect networks for businesses worldwide, has standardized its cloud security on Wiz, deployed and operated by Foresite. Running production workloads across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, OpenVPN needed protection built for a multi-cloud estate: one view of risk across every environment, code security that catches problems before they ship, and runtime detection tied to real response.

Foresite engineered Wiz's Cloud, Code and Defend as a phased rollout, with coverage validated at each layer before the next began, and now operates the platform as a managed service alongside the security operations it has run for OpenVPN on Google SecOps since 2025.

Multi-cloud estate

"Our production estate spans more than one cloud, and the risk that matters is rarely confined to one of them. We chose Wiz because the Security Graph gives us one picture of that risk, and we chose Foresite to engineer and run it because they already operated our security operations on Google Security Operations and understood how findings needed to reach the people who act on them," said Brian Litzinger, Chief Information Security Officer at OpenVPN.

"The phased rollout meant every layer was proven before the next one went live. What changed with continuous operations is that cloud risk stopped being a report we review and became part of how our SOC investigates and responds in Google Security Operations every day. For a lean security team, that is the difference between knowing about exposure and closing it."
