As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to revolutionize industries, ensuring the security of AI systems is paramount. In this webinar, we will explore the crucial role of API protection in fortifying AI security. We'll delve into the evolving threat landscape surrounding AI deployments and discuss how sophisticated API protection measures can mitigate risks including:

- Data Integrity and Confidentiality: Large volumes of data are used to train models and generate insights. APIs facilitate the exchange of this data between systems and applications. It's essential to check for unauthorized access and ensure that sensitive and confidential information remains secure.
- Preventing Data Breaches: APIs are often targeted by cyber attackers as entry points to backend systems. A compromised API can lead to significant data breaches, potentially exposing sensitive information.
- Operational Continuity: AI applications often support critical business functions. API security is essential to ensure these applications remain operational without disruption. DDoS attacks, for instance, can target APIs to bring down AI-powered services.

Join us to gain insights into the latest strategies and technologies for safeguarding your AI infrastructure against emerging cyber threats.
