At the same time, a new security challenge emerges, often becoming visible only after sensitive data has already been transferred to external AI systems.<\/p>\n<p>Today, very few organizations can confidently answer which AI tools are being used, what information is being entered into prompts, or whether confidential content is being processed further in AI-generated responses. This is exactly where <a href=\"https:\/\/sits.com\/en\/blog\/the-ai-compass-how-companies-maintain-course-in-times-of-shadow-ai\/\"><strong>Shadow AI<\/strong><\/a> becomes a challenge: AI usage is happening every day, often outside established IT approvals, security controls and governance processes.<\/p>\n<p>This article explains why traditional security approaches struggle to address generative AI risks, the role <strong>SASE<\/strong> plays in modern AI security strategies, and how <strong>Cato AI Security<\/strong> helps organizations adopt AI securely, with greater visibility, control, and compliance.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"smx_global_spacer size-s\"><\/div>\n<h2  class=\"h2 smx-headline \">Shadow AI and Data Leakage: The biggest risks of generative AI<\/h2>[vc_column_text]Organizations use tools like ChatGPT every day. The challenge begins when nobody knows what data is being entered into these systems or what happens to that information afterwards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In practice, employees often enter more information into AI tools than they realize<\/strong>. This may include source code, contract extracts, customer data, internal strategy documents, proposal details, or technical documentation. This rarely happens out of negligence. More often, employees simply lack a secure alternative, a clear policy, or technical controls that distinguish acceptable use from risky data exposure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The result is a loss of control on several levels<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Security teams cannot reliably see which AI services are being used.<\/li>\n<li>Compliance teams cannot verify which regulated or personal data has been processed.<\/li>\n<li>Business units maintain productivity but may operate outside approved processes.<\/li>\n<li>Intellectual property can unintentionally be exposed to systems that were never intended to process confidential corporate information.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For this reason, simply banning AI is not an effective solution. Restrictions often drive AI usage further into the shadows. Organizations need an approach that enables productivity while keeping risks manageable.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"smx_global_spacer size-s\"><\/div>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row custom_background_class=\"gradient-up\"][vc_column]<h2  class=\"h2 smx-headline \">Why are traditional security solutions not enough for AI applications?<\/h2>[vc_column_text]Traditional security solutions were designed for a very different type of traffic. They focus on applications, files, user behavior, or known threat patterns. <strong>Generative AI works differently<\/strong>. It operates through semantic and dynamic interactions, including prompts, responses, contextual information, agent actions and automated workflows.<\/p>\n<p>A conventional DLP solution might detect sensitive information inside a file upload. The challenge becomes far greater when an employee copies confidential information into a prompt, rewrites that information, or combines it with additional context. The complexity increases even further with private AI applications and autonomous AI agents that independently retrieve information, support decisions, or execute actions.<\/p>\n<p>New attack vectors add further complexity. <strong>Prompt injection<\/strong> can manipulate AI systems into executing unintended instructions. <strong>Model poisoning<\/strong> can compromise training or contextual data. <strong>Uncontrolled agent workflows<\/strong> can trigger processes before security teams even realize what has happened. At the same time, organizations face growing regulatory requirements driven by GDPR, the EU AI Act, and internal governance frameworks. Companies must not only prevent data leakage but also document how AI systems are being used.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, isolated tools, manual approval processes and standalone DLP controls are no longer sufficient. Organizations need <a href=\"https:\/\/sits.com\/en\/blog\/microsoft-copilot-compliance\/\">visibility, context and policy enforcement<\/a> directly where AI traffic is created and processed.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"smx_global_spacer size-s\"><\/div>\n<h2  class=\"h2 smx-headline \">How SASE and Cato AI Security protect AI usage in real time<\/h2>[vc_column_text]<strong>SASE<\/strong> (Secure Access Service Edge) <strong>combines networking and security functions within a cloud-native architecture<\/strong>. Instead of tying security to individual locations, appliances, or disconnected tools, access, traffic and policies are managed centrally. This becomes increasingly important as employees work from anywhere, rely on cloud services and use AI applications beyond traditional corporate environments. Bringing networking and security capabilities together in a single platform provides the visibility and control required to secure modern cloud and AI workloads consistently.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cato Networks<\/strong> extends this approach with <strong>Cato AI Security<\/strong>. The solution is natively integrated into the Cato SASE platform and addresses the gap between AI usage, data protection and governance. By integrating Aim Security technology and Cato Neural Edge with NVIDIA GPUs across its global backbone, AI traffic can be inspected inline and in real time.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"smx_global_spacer size-xs\"><\/div>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row custom_background_class=\"gradient-down\"][vc_column]<h3  class=\"h3 smx-headline \">5 essential capabilities for securing and governing generative AI<\/h3>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Identify AI Usage<\/strong><br \/>\nThe platform discovers which generative AI tools, private models and AI agents are being used, making Shadow AI visible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Analyze prompts and responses semantically<\/strong><br \/>\nInstead of relying only on static patterns, the solution evaluates context and identifies whether sensitive data, intellectual property, or regulated information may be involved.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enforce policies centrally<\/strong><br \/>\nSecurity policies are applied within the existing SASE framework, considering users, devices, applications, locations, data classifications and risk levels.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Protect private AI applications and agents<\/strong><br \/>\nInternal AI models and agent-based workflows can also be monitored and controlled, extending protection beyond public AI services.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Support compliance and AI Security Posture Management<\/strong><br \/>\nSecurity teams gain better capabilities for risk assessment, reporting and regulatory compliance management.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The key point is: <strong>AI security is not introduced as another standalone tool. It becomes part of a unified security architecture<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"smx_global_spacer size-s\"><\/div>\n<h2  class=\"h2 smx-headline \">The key benefits of an integrated AI Security platform<\/h2><h3  class=\"h3 smx-headline \">Greater visibility into Shadow AI<\/h3>[vc_column_text]Organizations can only protect what they can see. Cato AI Security provides visibility into AI usage, data flows, and risky interactions. For CISOs and security engineers, uncertainty is replaced with actionable intelligence. This reduces blind spots and supports more effective governance. Not every AI interaction is risky:<strong> the critical capability is distinguishing acceptable usage from problematic behavior<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text]<h3  class=\"h3 smx-headline \">Protection of sensitive data and intellectual property<\/h3>[vc_column_text]Prompts may contain confidential information even when no files are uploaded. This is what makes AI-related data leakage difficult to identify. Through <strong>semantic inline inspection<\/strong>, sensitive content can be understood in context before it reaches external services.<\/p>\n<p>This helps protect customer information, source code, contracts, business strategies, and other forms of intellectual property. At the same time, <a href=\"https:\/\/sits.com\/en\/digital-challenges\/ai-and-cyber-security\/\">productive AI usage<\/a> remains possible because organizations do not need to rely on blanket restrictions.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<h3  class=\"h3 smx-headline \">Compliance without sacrificing productivity<\/h3>[vc_column_text]Privacy regulations, GDPR, the EU AI Act, and internal policies require transparency and accountability. Organizations need to understand which AI applications are being used, what data is processed and which mitigation measures are in place.<\/p>\n<p>With centralized <strong>policy management<\/strong>, <strong>transparency<\/strong> and <strong>AI Security Posture Management<\/strong>, compliance requirements become easier to operationalize. As a result, organizations are better positioned to <a href=\"https:\/\/sits.com\/en\/security-advisory\/secure-ai\/\">adopt AI securely and in a structured manner<\/a>, identify risks early, and maintain long-term governance.[\/vc_column_text]<h3  class=\"h3 smx-headline \">Reduced complexity for security operations<\/h3>[vc_column_text]When AI security is deployed as a separate solution, it usually adds another dashboard, another alert channel and another integration challenge. A <a href=\"https:\/\/sits.com\/en\/network-endpoint-security\/secure-access-service-edge\/\">SASE-integrated approach<\/a> reduces this complexity because governance, monitoring, and detection operate within a unified platform.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sits.com\/en\/cyber-defense-center\/security-operations-center\/\">Security Operations Centers<\/a> benefit from clearer policies, reduced context switching and improved event prioritization, helping lower false positives and improve operational efficiency.[\/vc_column_text]<h3  class=\"h3 smx-headline \">A scalable foundation for future AI Adoption<\/h3>[vc_column_text]AI continues to evolve rapidly. Today, organizations focus on chatbots and copilots; tomorrow, they will increasingly rely on autonomous agents, internal models and AI-supported business processes. Security architectures therefore need to scale with new <a href=\"https:\/\/sits.com\/en\/blog\/copilot-usecases\/\">use cases<\/a> instead of being redesigned from scratch every time. SASE provides that foundation by applying security consistently across users, traffic, cloud services and policies rather than tying controls to specific locations or applications.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"smx_global_spacer size-s\"><\/div>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<h2  class=\"h2 smx-headline \">Common AI Security scenarios and how organizations mitigate risk<\/h2>[vc_column_text]<strong>Example 1: Developers using AI for Code Analysis<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A developer wants to identify a software issue more quickly and copies internal source code into a generative AI tool. Without control, intellectual property could be exposed. AI Security operating within a SASE context can recognize sensitive code elements in the prompt. Depending on policy settings, the input can be blocked, sanitized, or flagged for review.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example 2: Legal teams working with contract excerpts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A business team wants to summarize contractual language using AI. Personal data, pricing information, customer names, or confidential clauses may be included in prompts. Semantic inspection can detect risky content and prevent it from being transferred to unapproved AI services.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example 3: Business teams testing their own AI Agents<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A department develops an internal AI agent that connects information from multiple systems. Without appropriate controls, the agent may access excessive amounts of information or execute unintended actions.

The first step is understanding which AI tools are already being used, what data is affected, and where the greatest risks already exist.<\/p>\n<p>A structured implementation approach typically includes four steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Assess current AI usage<\/strong><br \/>\nIdentify which public AI tools, copilots, private models and agents are already in use and where.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Classify risks and data<\/strong><br \/>\nDefine which information can be processed in AI systems and which categories require special protection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Design Policies within the SASE framework<\/strong><br \/>\nPolicies should consider user roles, devices, locations, data types and risk levels rather than focusing solely on applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Monitor and adapt continuously<\/strong><br \/>\nAI usage changes constantly. Policies must evolve alongside new business requirements and use cases.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Balance is critical. Policies that are too relaxed create risk.
