AI Access Security

Use AI Access Security to safely adopt and control generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) apps.
We introduced AI Access Security to enable businesses to safely adopt GenAI apps across their organization by mitigating the risks associated with data leakage in prompts and malicious content in responses. AI Access Security includes an extensive dictionary of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) apps to help you identify GenAI apps alongside contextual, fine-grained access control policy rules to help you prevent exfiltration of sensitive data. AI Access Security also provides detailed monitoring capabilities that enable you to filter for specific GenAI apps, users, and GenAI use cases, which in turn enables you to write targeted Security policy rules to strengthen your security posture that help you control the data leaving your organization for GenAI apps allowed within your organization.
GenAI apps are AI apps capable of generating text, images, videos, and other forms of data in response to user prompts and continuously learn based on user inputs. Their usage is proliferating at an astonishing rate and offer limitless opportunities for businesses. However, the nature by which GenAI apps contentiously improve presents a new danger to businesses and security administrators — how can you ensure your employees are not exposing sensitive or proprietary data to GenAI apps?
AI Access Security is powered by three core principals that allow your organization to safely use GenAI apps while ensuring your sensitive or proprietary data isn't exposed.
  • Identify and Control GenAI AppsAI Access Security provides robust GenAI app taxonomy, attributes, and access control tools to identify and manage which GenAI apps are sanctioned, tolerated, or unsanctioned in your corporate network.
  • Comprehensive Visualization and Reporting—Your manage AI Access Security entirely from Strata Cloud Manager—your single pane of glass management experience across your security enforcement channels. AI Access Security includes a detailed dashboard that displays trends that help you to filter and explore usage based on users, data transfers, GenAI apps, and use cases across all channels. You can also generate executive summary reports to summarize GenAI app usage, policy violation metrics, and other important data security metrics.
  • Data ProtectionEnterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP), the Palo Alto Networks cloud-based data loss prevention service that uses AI and supervised machine learning algorithms, is the detection engine that enables you to prevent the exfiltration of sensitive data for file and non-file based uploads and text prompts.
