AI 기술이 빠르게 발전함에 따라, 기존 보안 솔루션으로 대응하기 어려운 새로운 안전 문제와 보안 위협이 전례 없는 속도로 대두되고 있는 가운데 시스코가 기업의 AI 트랜스포메이션을 지원하는 보안 솔루션 AI 디펜스(Cisco AI Defense)를 발표하며, 기업 고객들이 안심하고 AI 애플리케이션을 개발, 배포 및 보호할 수 있도록 지원한다.
Responding to new security threats that are difficult to respond to with existing security solutions
As AI technology rapidly develops, new safety issues and security threats that are difficult to respond to with existing security solutions are emerging at an unprecedented rate. Cisco is introducing the latest security solutions to help enterprise customers develop, deploy, and protect AI applications with confidence.
Cisco announced Cisco AI Defense, a security solution that supports enterprises' AI transformation.
For enterprises to successfully implement AI innovation and adoption, they need a unified security layer that protects all users and applications.
AI Defense supports enterprises’ AI transformation by addressing two urgent risks:
First, the development and distribution of safe AI applications.
As AI becomes more widespread, enterprises are leveraging and developing hundreds or thousands of AI applications. This requires developers to have consistent security and guardrails that can be applied across all applications.
AI Defense helps developers realize greater value faster by protecting AI systems and model behavior across platforms.
Next is strengthening access security for AI applications.
As users rapidly adopt and use AI applications such as summary tools to improve productivity, security teams must prevent data leaks and contamination of corporate data.
AI Defense provides security teams with comprehensive visibility, restricts employee access to unauthorized AI tools, and prevents threats and compromise of confidential data.
Cisco's AI Defense enables AI models to provide consistent control across multi-model and multi-cloud environments.
AI Defense uses Cisco’s proprietary machine learning (ML) models to detect and respond to evolving AI safety and security issues.
AI Defense is embedded in Cisco Security Cloud and implements AI security at the network level.
Accuracy and reliability are essential to protecting enterprise AI applications. Cisco has been actively participating in the development of AI security industry standards in cooperation with global organizations. AI Defense is scheduled to be available to enterprises starting in March 2025.
“As enterprises adopt AI, they should not sacrifice safety for speed,” said Jeetu Patel, vice president and chief product officer at Cisco. “In a competitive environment, speed is critical to a company’s success,” he said. “Cisco AI Defense is integrated into the network fabric, enabling it to effectively detect and defend against threats that arise during the development or access of AI applications.”
