The Urgency of Securing AI Workloads for CISOs

This piece advises CISOs to assess GenAI and other emerging technologies through the lenses of speed, automation, and algorithmic transparency, recommending practical steps—engage stakeholders, conduct STRIDE/DREAD threat modeling, evaluate telemetry gaps, maintain a living risk register, and invest in training and critical thinking—while warning that adversaries are already leveraging GenAI for social engineering, zero-days, and tailored attacks, requiring continuous monitoring, validation, and runtime-speed operations.
