AI Security Operations (AI SecOps): Building a Continuous AI Defense Strategy
Artificial Intelligence is becoming a core part of enterprise operations. Businesses are deploying Large Language Models (LLMs), AI agents, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) applications, AI copilots, and intelligent automation to improve productivity and accelerate decision-making. However, as AI adoption grows, organizations also face new cybersecurity challenges that require continuous protection rather than periodic security reviews. Traditional security operations were designed to monitor networks, endpoints, cloud workloads, and applications. AI introduces an entirely new attack surface with risks such as prompt injection, model abuse, unauthorized access, excessive permissions, insecure APIs, Shadow AI, data leakage, and compromised AI agents. These threats continue to evolve long after AI systems are deployed. AI Security Operations (AI SecOps) is the practice of continuously monitoring, detecting, investigating, and responding to security threats targeting enterprise ...
