Google releases Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber, a lightweight AI model fine-tuned for vulnerability detection and patching, initially available only to governments and trusted partners via CodeMender. The model achieves competitive performance against larger cybersecurity models whilst operating at significantly lower cost, enabling scalable continuous scanning of complex codebases.

The Wire takeaway

If you're selling cybersecurity tools to governments or large enterprises, Google just became your competition - and at lower cost. The gating (government-only access for now) creates a window to sell before that gate opens.
