Insights from the AI security
front line

Threat intelligence, governance frameworks, and technical deep-dives from the AIGuard security research team.

Data Security

Why Traditional DLP Fails in the Age of Generative AI

Legacy DLP was built for structured data and regex patterns. Freeform LLM prompts break every assumption it was designed around.

AI Governance

AI Security in 2026: The CISO Playbook for Enterprise AI Adoption

The five control domains every CISO is deploying right now, and the three maturity stages separating visibility from true governance.

AI Governance

Shadow AI: The Fastest-Growing Attack Surface You're Not Monitoring

Shadow AI is worse than shadow IT — data exits in prompts, not files. Here's the methodology for discovering and governing unsanctioned AI tool usage.

AI Infrastructure

Securing the LLM API Layer: Why Your AI Gateway Matters

A single leaked OpenAI API key can cost six figures in hours. The gateway is your security boundary — but only if it's built for AI-era threats.

Agentic AI

The Five Security Risks of Autonomous AI Agents

From prompt injection via environment files to supply chain attacks via malicious MCP servers — the threat landscape for AI agents is broader than most teams realise.

Compliance

AI and HIPAA: What Every Healthcare CIO Needs to Know

Clinical staff are using ChatGPT for patient documentation without a BAA. The OCR enforcement clock is ticking — here's the five-step compliance programme.

Threat Intelligence

AI-Powered Attacks: How Attackers Are Using the Same Tools You Are

LLM-crafted spearphishing, deepfake BEC fraud, and jailbreak-as-a-service ecosystems — the attacker advantage is narrowing, but only with real-time enforcement.

Agentic AI

MCP Security: The New Attack Surface Nobody Is Talking About

Model Context Protocol gives AI agents powerful capabilities. It also creates a direct code execution path from untrusted AI input — and the security industry has barely noticed.

Incident Response

AI Security Incident Response: How to Investigate an Agent Compromise

Traditional IR playbooks don't apply to AI incidents. No default logs, no memory forensics for LLM context — here's the six-step AI IR process.
