As hybrid cloud-, AI-, and quantum-related risks upend the traditional data security paradigm, IBM is launching Guardium Data Security Center. Its services would allow organizations to protect data in any environment, throughout its full lifecycle, and with unified controls.
The center provides a common view of organizations' data assets, empowering security teams to integrate workflows and address data monitoring and governance, data detection and response, data and AI security posture management, and cryptography management together in a single dashboard. It also includes generative AI capabilities to help generate risk summaries and boost security professionals' productivity.
The center features Guardium AI Security, a software to help protect organizations' AI deployments from security vulnerabilities and data governance policy violations at a time when generative AI adoption is surging. It also features Guardium Quantum Safe, software that helps clients protect encrypted data from the potential risk of future cyberattacks driven by bad actors who gain access to cryptographically relevant quantum computers.
"Generative AI and quantum computing provide immense opportunities, but they also bring new risks," says Akiba Saeedi, Vice President of IBM Security Product Management. "During this transformative time, organizations need to improve their crypto-agility and carefully monitor their AI models, training data, and usage. IBM Guardium Data Security Center – with its AI Security, Quantum Safe, and other integrated capabilities – provides comprehensive risk visibility."
Telecom operators are no longer using AI only for network optimisation and routine operations. They are applying it to faster product development and customer conversations. Matija Ražem says AI enables prototypes in hours, quicker market testing, and automation of many standard support questions. The next step may be a world where personal digital agents interact with agents from telecoms, banks and other large organisations.
ReversingLabs is developing agent-based approaches to security operations, while warning that the expertise needed to manage such systems will become even more critical.
Infobip has officially introduced RCS BusinessOS, an end-to-end operating layer designed to assist mobile network operators in launching, managing, and monetizing RCS for Business.
