Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber

Preview
Google DeepMindProprietary

A specialized, highly efficient cybersecurity model built on Gemini 3.5 Flash and fine-tuned to find and fix software vulnerabilities at a lower price per token than larger models. Deployed inside Google's CodeMender agent, where multiple 3.5 Flash Cyber agents collaborate to produce a single combined report, reaching competitive frontier performance on the CyberGym benchmark. Given its dual-use nature, it is not generally available: access is limited to governments and trusted partners via CodeMender as part of a limited-access pilot program.
