Three insights you might have missed from theCUBE’s coverage of the ‘Securing the AI Factory’ event

Agentic artificial intelligence is transforming the enterprise world — and creating dangerous security gaps at every turn.

The rise of the AI factory, a system designed to continuously transform data into intelligence at industrial scale, has led organizations to overlook the security implications of autonomous agents and nondeterministic models. The agentic enterprise will require an entirely new control plane, and a different set of security procedures.

“AI changes the whole game,” said Steve Kenniston (pictured), senior cybersecurity evangelist for portfolio marketing at Dell Technologies Inc., in an interview with theCUBE. “There’s the model inferencing. There’s the model training data. There are systems where people can do things like prompt injection. There’s identity management that needs to be thought about. These things are changing so fast. There’s a whole group of things that actually change from an attack surface standpoint that you want to make sure you have locked down as you’re building out this brand new application. Every new application has a new attack surface.”

Kenniston spoke with theCUBE’s Dave Vellante for the “Securing the AI Factory” event, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. At the event, leaders from Dell and Intel discussed how they are securing AI infrastructure and building in data protection from the ground up. (* Disclosure below.)
