SUMMARY:SASE’s Role in Securing AI Adoption
DESCRIPTION:AI adoption is accelerating across enterprises – from generative AI tools to AI-driven cloud services – fundamentally reshaping how users access data\, applications\, and cloud environments. While these technologies unlock new efficiencies\, they also introduce new risks\, visibility gaps\, and enforcement challenges for security teams.\nAs part of an SC Media–hosted webinar\, this session brings together industry research and practitioner perspectives to examine how Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) must evolve to support secure AI adoption at scale. With AI-driven usage patterns\, shadow AI tools\, and increasingly automated threats\, traditional network security models and fragmented SASE architectures are no longer sufficient. \nJoin Amit Bareket\, VP SASE\, Jonathan Zanger\, CTO at Check Point\, and Adrian Sanabria\, Principal Researcher at The Defenders Initiative\, for a strategic discussion on how modern SASE architectures can deliver the visibility\, policy enforcement\, and adaptive protection required in an AI-first enterprise. \nThis webinar will cover: \n\nHow AI adoption is changing enterprise traffic patterns\, access behavior\, and risk exposure\nWhy legacy network security and siloed controls struggle in AI-driven environments\nThe role of AI-powered visibility\, analytics\, and real-time policy enforcement within modern SASE\nWhat security leaders should look for in a SASE platform to enable AI innovation without compromising control\n\nGain practical insights into how SASE can serve as a foundational security framework for AI adoption – helping organizations stay resilient as both AI usage and threats continue to scale.
