Show ▼
AI's potential in cyber defense is substantial, but securing AI systems is crucial to avoid expanding the attack surface. Organizations must establish trust in AI systems through strong identity controls, data governance, and continuous monitoring. Best practices include applying least privilege, strong authentication, and continuous auditing to AI agents and models. The SANS Secure AI Blueprint outlines key controls for securing AI systems, aligning with NIST and OWASP guidelines. Balancing automation and human oversight is essential for effective AI integration in cyber defense.

SANS Secure AI Blueprint outlines best practices for securing AI in cyber defense
The SANS Secure AI Blueprint provides six control domains for securing AI systems, including access controls, data controls, deployment strategies, inference security, monitoring, and model security. These controls align with NIST's AI Risk Management Framework and the OWASP Top 10 for LLMs, helping organizations translate guidance into operational defense. Balancing AI automation and human oversight is crucial for effective cyber defense.
