ADAPTIVE SHIELD LAUNCHES SAAS SECURITY FOR
AI AT RSA CONFERENCE 2024 TO MITIGATE GENAI REVOLUTION
RISKS

RSA Conference--Adaptive Shield, the leader in SaaS Security,
today announced breakthrough SaaS Security Posture Management
(SSPM) detection and response capabilities for AI-driven
applications to enable enterprises to mitigate the risks introduced
by the growing use of generative AI.
Adaptive Shield will demonstrate its SSPM AI capabilities and
award-winning technology during the RSA Conference 2024 in San
Francisco at booth #1455, Moscone South Expo. The event takes place
from Monday, May 6 through Thursday, May 9, 2024.
The workforce is rapidly adopting SaaS applications with GenAI
to increase efficiency, including AI apps such as ChatGPT and
Google Gimni, and AI tools within existing SaaS apps such as GitHub
Copilot, Salesforce Einstein, and Microsoft 365 Copilot. According
to a recent PWC report, more than half of the companies surveyed
(54%) have implemented GenAI in some areas of their business.
While increasing automation and improving productivity, the use
of GenAI introduces new risks including data leakage, attack
surface expansion, new areas of exploitation, and privacy concerns,
as well as new challenges to meet compliance and government
requirements.
“The GenAI revolution requires new security strategies and
organizations recognize the need to make it a priority,” said Maor
Bin, CEO and co-founder of Adaptive Shield. “Some organizations are
working to ban GenAI because of their unfamiliarity with the risks.
Rather than attempting to block this development, they should
invest in security, as it’s just a matter of time until the
technology becomes ubiquitous.”
Toward that end, Adaptive Shield is announcing a product suite
within its SSPM platform to help Chief AI Officers and security
teams manage and control GenAI tools, featuring:
- Security Posture for AI Apps: Delve into the security
posture of any AI application within the SaaS stack and prioritize
addressing application configuration drifts. Adaptive Shield
provides a security score for each application, enabling security
teams to pinpoint those with heightened risk levels. This includes:
- Hygiene/risk score based on the number of security checks
passed, weighted by severity.
- Detailed security checks, filterable by domain, severity, or
compliance framework. This entails step-by-step guidance and
remediation cycles through any ticketing system or SIEM/SOAR.
- Risk management pertaining to the relationship between user
devices and their access to the SaaS app.
- AI Configurations: Control AI-related security settings
within SaaS applications to prevent data leakage or any exposure.
This includes identifying excessive user access and determining
which users possess permissions to manage GenAI features.
- Discovery and Management of AI Shadow Apps: Identify
GenAI Shadow apps, including suspected malicious applications, to
automatically revoke access based on their risk level.
- Management of 3rd Party Longtail AI-Sanctioned Apps:
Oversee interconnected GenAI applications and the level of risk
they pose to the SaaS hubs, including reviewing permission
scopes.
- Secure Homegrown Applications: Shield homegrown
GenAI-driven applications, restricting access and configuring them
securely.
- Data Management to Maintain Data Silos: AI potentially
accesses sensitive data in a more sophisticated and comprehensive
manner than traditional methods. The ability of AI to analyze and
correlate information from multiple sources could lead to a more
extensive data exposure. With Adaptive Shield you can govern
security controls to avoid data leakage.
Adaptive Shield’s industry-leading platform for SSPM and ITDR
supports 150+ out-of-the-box SaaS app integrations with leading
business applications, as well as any custom app.
