Shadow AI

Shakespeare knew that the most dangerous threats come from within. Shadow AI is no different: it's not an outside attack, it's your own people using unsanctioned tools and sharing company data where no one can see it. See why what your security team doesn't know about is your biggest exposure.

In Hawkins, the threat slipped in through the cracks, and by the time anyone noticed, it was already in control. Prompt injection works the same way: malicious instructions hidden inside inputs, hijacking what your AI does next. See why what goes in matters as much as what comes out.
