To empower organizations as they embrace AI’s full potential while safeguarding their critical assets, Cisco is finalizing a deal which involves integrating Robust Intelligence’s technology into the Cisco Security Cloud.
Tom Gillis, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Cisco Security Business Group, noted that traditional security tools often fall short in addressing the unique challenges posed by AI. Hence, there is a pressing need for specialized solutions.
“Our vision for the Cisco Security Cloud centers on leveraging the power of AI to simplify security, enhance user experiences, and proactively defend against emerging threats. With unparalleled expertise in all things where the network meets security, we’re committed to empowering customers on their AI journey, wherever they happen to be,” explained Gillis.
Acquisition to Fortify AI Security
Following the acquisition of Splunk, Cisco has taken another significant step in securing the AI-driven enterprise with its intention to acquire Robust Intelligence, a trailblazing company at the forefront of AI security solutions and a valued member of the Cisco Investments portfolio.
“Security leaders need purpose-built solutions they can trust to keep up with the new paradigm of AI risk,” said Robust Intelligence Co-founder and CEO, Yaron Singer. “Our team is excited about the integral role our platform will play in shaping the future of the Cisco Security Cloud, providing end-to-end AI security and leading the AI revolution with Cisco.”
From development to production, Robust Intelligence’s purpose-built platform offers robust protection for AI models throughout its lifecycle. Moreover, through advanced automation and risk mitigation, Robust Intelligence empowers organizations to securely deploy AI applications while adhering to industry and regulatory standards.
Gillis emphasized that Robust Intelligence is a “natural fit for Cisco,” as the company’s focus and deep expertise in AI model security and governance perfectly complements Cisco’s existing capabilities and accelerates Cisco Security Cloud’s roadmap.
The combined expertise of Cisco and Robust Intelligence will drive rapid innovation in AI security, specifically within the areas of simplified configuration, attack prediction, adaptive policy enforcement, and user experience.
