38% of AI initiatives are now being launched without the knowledge of senior management. What happens when one of these projects sparks a security breach?
The AI revolution is surging ahead, with initiatives popping up faster than many organizations can manage. Alarmingly, a 2024 report from Jen Easterly, director of CISA, revealed that 38% of AI initiatives are being launched without senior management’s knowledge.
This lack of oversight invites innovation and opens the door to substantial risks.
Picture this: an unsanctioned AI project sparks a security breach. The fallout doesn’t just threaten data—it compromises trust, brand equity, and regulatory standing.
Spoiler alert: the cleanup won’t fall on those who launched the projects. Instead, it will land squarely on your shoulders.
This is not a hypothetical scenario. According to EY's latest analysis, AI investments have nearly doubled year-over-year. As businesses race to harness AI’s potential, the urgency to secure these initiatives has become paramount. Waiting for a breach is no longer an option; the stakes are too high.
As cybersecurity professionals, we face a critical juncture. Will we be passive spectators, hoping all goes well, or proactive leaders shaping secure AI architecture?
Industry pioneer Bruce Schneier once said, “Security is not a product, but a process.” That rings especially true in the AI era. The time to act is now.
We bring the only NIST-approved, data-driven cybersecurity management technology that fully deploys federally compliant AI-RM frameworks. This provides the most thorough analysis and guideposts available today.
Whether it’s securing a single AI project, safeguarding a series of initiatives, or integrating AI-related cyber risks into your overarching security strategy, we provide:
In this fast-paced AI landscape, security cannot be an afterthought. As Forbes recently noted, “AI’s greatest strength—its ability to automate and innovate—is also its greatest vulnerability if left unsecured.”
