Splunk SOAR Now Available on Google Cloud

2026 is well underway and Splunk is out ahead, building on the December 2025 momentum of Splunk on Google Cloud announcements. The latest milestone: Splunk Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) is available as a SaaS service on Google Cloud.

Now, Security Operations Center (SOC) Analysts, Incident Response Teams, and other security professionals can seamlessly take full advantage of Splunk SOAR as a SaaS service within their Google Cloud environments to orchestrate workflows, automate tasks, and respond faster. Splunk SOAR on Google Cloud provides a centralized platform for orchestrating and automating investigation and response workflows. Splunk SOAR also integrates with Splunk Enterprise Security 8.3+ on Google Cloud, enabling an integrated security operations experience across an organization’s Google Cloud estate as well as multi-cloud and hybrid environments.

Turning Alerts and Insights into Action

Increasingly distributed environments and massive alert volumes strain even the most robust SOC teams. Between hybrid architectures, dispersed workforces, and endless amounts of apps and security tools, manually investigating and responding to threats is unsustainable. Security leaders need automation and orchestration as foundational capabilities to improve speed, scale, and consistency across security operations.

Bringing Splunk SOAR to Google Cloud enables organizations to embed Splunk’s security automation capabilities directly into their cloud environments—close to where data, workloads, and operations already reside. By aligning detection, investigation, and response within a cloud-native platform, teams can move from reactive response to repeatable, automated operations, strengthening security posture while improving resilience across cloud environments.

“Google Cloud is focused on helping customers run secure, digitally resilient operations as they scale in the cloud. Splunk SOAR on Google Cloud gives customers a way to connect security insights with automated response—enabling them to act faster, reduce complexity, and operate with greater confidence.”

Vineet Bhan, Director of Security and Identity Partnerships, Google Cloud

What You Can Do with Splunk SOAR on Google Cloud

Splunk SOAR on Google Cloud delivers SOAR capabilities as a SaaS service, including over 2,800 automated actions, 300+ third-party integrations, prebuilt playbooks that utilize MITRE, ATT&CK, and D3FEND frameworks, as well as integration with Splunk Enterprise Security. What’s especially powerful is how Splunk admins can use Splunk SOAR with native Google Cloud services like Google Security Operations, BigQuery, and Google Vault. For example:

Together, these integrations extend Splunk SOAR beyond traditional security tools and embed automation directly into Google Cloud services. Security teams can automate incident handling and orchestrate response actions across Google Cloud and multi-cloud environments, while unifying data from cloud services and third-party tools into a clearer operational view. Standardized workflows and guided playbooks help SOC teams work more efficiently and consistently, and the scale and reliability of Google Cloud allow security operations to grow with confidence as environments and alert volumes expand.

“With Splunk SOAR delivered as a SaaS service on Google Cloud, we’re removing operational overhead by handling maintenance and upgrades, so security teams can focus on response and outcomes rather than managing platforms. Running SOAR on Google Cloud helps customers automate investigations and scale response without adding operational complexity.”

Brad Murphy, VP of Platform Engineering at Splunk, a Cisco company
