Bell Cyber and Cohere deploy sovereign AI for Canadian cybersecurity operations

TORONTO, September 23, 2026 – At the Bell Cybersecurity Summit in Toronto, Bell and Cohere today announced the deployment of a domain-specific cybersecurity AI model within Bell Cyber’s security operations. Built using Cohere’s secure enterprise AI technology and Bell Cyber’s cybersecurity data and expertise, the large language model (LLM) is designed to accelerate threat investigations and equip analysts with more relevant, consistent analysis. 

This customized model is trained for cybersecurity use cases using Bell Cyber data and operational knowledge and is being integrated into Bell Cyber’s Autonomous Security Operations Centre (ASOC). It is designed to analyze and summarize complex security information, surface the context most relevant to an investigation, and support standardized investigative workflows. This reduces the time analysts spend gathering and interpreting information, allowing them to focus on validating threats, determining impact and directing the response. 

The model is now running in production on Bell AI Fabric infrastructure, with AI processing and sensitive security information remaining within a Canadian-hosted environment. This architecture gives Bell Cyber greater control over the model, data and operations supporting the service, adding a sovereign AI capability to its ASOC for Canadian businesses and public sector organizations. The deployment also marks the first customer-facing solution developed through Bell and Cohere's strategic AI collaboration.
