AI cybersecurity: The biggest risk is being in the dark

AI is moving quickly, which means more risks: data vulnerabilities, cyberthreats, and ransomware attacks. Protecting the AI runtime from manipulation, preventing model theft, and preventing training data poisoning should be top priorities for all enterprises. Our recent survey with IDC unfortunately showed that only 20% of companies have standardized policies in place to ensure that AI is used responsibly and safely. And only 25% of companies are confident in removing sensitive information from ingestion before it’s used for AI model training. That leaves a lot of IT teams in the dark and vulnerable to cyberattacks in the age of AI.

In reimagining unified data storage, NetApp has kept responsible AI top of mind. We’ve simplified data management with a unified control plane and single storage architecture to maximize performance and unlock complete visibility of your data layer. Your AI data is fully secure, and your AI governance policies are controlled. With built-in, integrated data protection, companies don’t have to question whether any of their sensitive data might slip through the cracks and wind up in the hands of cybercriminals.

Unified storage provides the following benefits for AI cybersecurity:   

• You have easy access to your data no matter where it lives—without risk. NetApp keeps data protected across your enterprise with an intelligent data infrastructure that’s secure by design.
