AI Security Posture Management (AISPM) is an emerging discipline addressing cybersecurity challenges in the AI/ML lifecycle, from data collection to deployment.
AISPM extends classical cybersecurity paradigms to cover the AI pipeline, emphasizing continuous monitoring and security controls.
Key imperatives include data lineage tracking, secure data collection, cryptographic frameworks, and threat modeling.
AISPM practices involve secure build pipelines, model verification, runtime monitoring, and aligning with regulatory frameworks.
It recommends utilizing FHE for privacy-preserving ML, enforcing formal bounds on input perturbations, and employing multi-factor authentication.
AISPM emphasizes the importance of version control, unit testing, vulnerability scanning, and adversarial testing in MLOps environments.
Robust Intelligence, Fiddler AI, Arize AI, Seldon Core, and Truera are evaluated as market-leading AISPM solutions with distinct technical strengths.
AISPM frameworks help organizations proactively defend against adversarial threats, ensure compliance, and maintain trust in AI outputs.
Future developments in cryptographic techniques and dynamic adversarial defenses will enhance the security posture of enterprise AI systems.
