Building on Foresite’s experience deploying and operating the Google Cloud security stack, they have extended the same approach to Wiz, which is now part of Google Cloud, helping customers turn cloud risk discovery into coordinated action.
Overland Park, Kansas, September 28 /PRNewswire/ — Foresite Cybersecurity today announced the expansion of its cloud security services to include Wiz, as part of its designation as the 2026 North America Google Cloud Security Partner of the Year. The company has also achieved Premier status within the Wiz Partner Alliance Services Program and is participating in the Wiz Partner Alliance Managed Service Provider Program. This expansion builds on Foresite’s experience deploying and operating the Google Cloud security stack, helping organizations connect cloud risk management with security operations.
Foresite states that by integrating Wiz’s cloud and AI security platform with Google Cloud’s suite of security products, the company helps organizations transform these capabilities into a cohesive security initiative. Foresite also notes that by connecting cloud security teams with SOC teams, sharing context, coordinating workflows, and clarifying responsibilities, the company enables customers to move from identifying cloud risks to investigating threats and taking action.
Foresite’s services include assessment, implementation, and ongoing operations on the Wiz AI Application Protection Platform (AI-APP). Enterprises can engage Foresite to enhance existing deployments, introduce new capabilities, or manage day-to-day platform operations, with services tailored to their specific environment and priorities.

The core of this approach is integrating Wiz with Google Security Operations to connect cloud risk discovery and runtime detection with SOC investigations and responses. Foresite supports these operations through its Cyber Fusion Centers, which provide 24/7 managed detection and response, combining automated investigations with practitioner oversight of high-impact response actions.
Foresite's receipt of the Premier designation and participation in Wiz's Managed Service Program reflect the company's commitment to delivering capabilities on the Wiz platform and its completed client projects.
Jeremy Hehl, Chief Evangelist at Foresite, said: “The opportunity lies in connecting teams’ awareness of cloud risks with how they investigate and respond to threats. We are helping customers integrate Wiz into this operational model, drawing on our own experience with Google Cloud security, and providing the expertise and ongoing support needed for successful deployment.”
Key advantages include:
- Full visualization and easy deployment: Foresite fully deploys and manages Wiz to provide agentless visualization for cloud and AI environments.
- Professional risk prioritization: Using the Wiz Security Graph, Foresite analysts assess misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, identity, and data exposure to transform security context into clear, actionable priorities.
- Accelerated remediation: By pairing direct remediation support with the Wiz platform, Foresite addresses critical risks at the root cause level and continuously enforces compliance requirements without slowing down innovation.
Andy Ritchie, Vice President of Global Channels and Alliances at Wiz, said: “As AI models transform how software is built and secured, security teams must now adapt their operations to defend at machine speed. Wiz provides context-driven cloud and AI security capabilities that protect everything organizations build and run. Our partners are essential to delivering this value, and the Premier level represents the highest possible standard of Wiz platform technical expertise, training, and certification. Foresite has demonstrated deep commitment to this standard and quickly qualified its engineers, ensuring our shared customers have a trusted partner safeguarding their operations every day.”
Brian Carlton, Director of Global Partner Solutions Architecture at Wiz, said: “Context makes cloud risk actionable, and the Wiz Security Graph is where this context resides. What sets Foresite apart is that the team deploying Wiz is the same team running security operations. For most organizations, these are two separate initiatives—and the gap between them is precisely where cloud security often stalls.”
Verification in production environment
OpenVPN’s connectivity solutions protect networks for enterprises worldwide, and its cloud security has been standardized on Wiz and deployed and operated by Foresite. OpenVPN runs production workloads on AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, requiring protection built for a multi-cloud environment: a unified risk view across all environments, code security that catches issues before code release, and runtime detection tied to real responses. Foresite designed and deployed Wiz’s Cloud, Code, and Defend in phased stages, validating the coverage of each layer before moving to the next. The platform currently operates as a managed service, parallel to Foresite’s security operations for OpenVPN on Google SecOps, which have been running since 2025.
Brian Litzinger, Chief Information Security Officer at OpenVPN, said: “Our production environment spans more than one cloud, and the most critical risks rarely reside within just one. We chose Wiz because its Security Graph gives us a unified view of these risks; we selected Foresite to design and operate it because they already run our security operations on Google Security Operations and understand how these findings must be communicated to those who can take action. A phased rollout ensures each layer is validated before the next is enabled. The shift brought by continuous operations is that cloud risks are no longer just a report we review—they’ve become part of what our SOC investigates and responds to daily within Google Security Operations. For a lean security team, this is the difference between knowing about exposure and actually closing it.”
