Google has completed its $5.4 billion acquisition of cybersecurity firm Mandiant to boost the security of its cloud services.

"Combining Google Cloud's existing security portfolio with Mandiant's leading cyberthreat intelligence will allow us to deliver a security operations suite to help enterprises globally stay protected at every stage of the security lifecycle," Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian wrote in a Sept. 12 company blog post.
