Google and Wiz Scan for Good
Google and Wiz launched Scan for Good, using AI security agents to search for vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure and other organisations, then handing findings to human researchers for verification and remediation. The hook is the unlikely use of offensive AI for public good, backed by real examples including risks found at hospitals, a rail operator and a municipality.
Why it worked: It flipped the “AI agents are dangerous” narrative by offering verified, named real-world fixes and a CISA endorsement as proof.
The lesson: Consider pitching a tool that challenges a fear, then pair it with audited case studies and a credible third-party endorsement.
