How Security Leaders Should Evaluate GenAI Systems

 

Few technology trends in 2023 have generated as much attention — and concern — as generative AI.  

Much of the focus has been on public GenAI models, including ChatGPT, BingChat and Google Bard. But these public apps open the doors to serious cybersecurity risks, such as leaking sensitive data enabling competitors to access trade secrets and coding issues that can inadvertently create backdoors and other security holes. 

Listen to Wipro senior partner Saugat Sindhu discuss the best ways to execute a generative AI strategy today, including the pros and cons of using a private, closed-loop GenAI system. 

Sindhu talks about how security leaders should evaluate and select a private AI system for employees, contractors and third-party partners. You’ll learn why it’s important for the CISO to monitor and manage the GenAI system as it learns and expands from user inputs, and why it’s critical to ensure that proprietary information does not become part of the model’s off-the-shelf content.
