The recent Hollywood writers’ strike highlighted a growing global concern around the lack of guardrails when using artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace. Hollywood’s issue around generative AI underpins the ticking time bomb the world faces regarding how this advanced technology can impact the safety of SaaS environments.
A recent AON Global Risk Management Survey revealed a startling underestimation of AI as a business risk, not even ranking in the top 20. This oversight is a serious miscalculation when it comes to SaaS data protection. With AI's potential to revolutionize cyber threats, the urgency for advanced data security measures in enterprises has never been more acute. Fundamentally, AI is transforming the organizational risk landscape. Whether this happens for the better or worse will depend largely on how seriously business and technology leaders take this advanced technology that has rapidly become a core component of operations.
