    The more AI an enterprise absorbs, the less it can actually see or govern. According to our latest State of Application Strategy report, 98% of organizations are preparing to deploy agentic AI, yet traditional security controls are struggling to keep up. 🤯 SC Media breaks down why blocking AI outright only pushes usage into the shadows. True enterprise protection requires continuous observation across every user, model, agent, API, and tool call. By building security directly into the active traffic path, the F5 AI Security Platform gives CISOs what has been missing: real-time discovery of shadow AI, automated red-teaming, and dynamic guardrails that protect the business without slowing down innovation. 🔗 Explore the breakdown: https://go.f5.net/g32ylkyc

    Performance is not a security measure. 🚨 Before deploying AI models, security leaders need to know which security properties have actually been measured, which have not, and whether surrounding controls can handle the remaining risk. In a new deep dive from our F5 Labs Threat Research team, we examine why a model's resilience breaks down when transitioned into multi-step agentic scenarios, and share the key metrics CISOs must track across both the pre- and post-deployment lifecycle. ➡️ Download the September F5 CASI and ARS leaderboards: https://go.f5.net/ur9sovpv

    🤖 AI is moving fast. Security has to move faster. We're excited to be recognized in the Market Shapers quadrant in the Gartner® Emerging Market Quadrant™ for AI Application Security in the September 2026 report, one of just two vendors. As enterprises deploy AI across applications, APIs, and autonomous agents, the need for security that works across complex, real-world environments continues to grow. F5 is helping organizations secure AI where it runs—not just where it's built. Learn more: https://go.f5.net/nviobwmy

    Securing AI shouldn’t mean rewriting your applications. ICYMI: As enterprises scale, security teams are left stitching together fragmented policies across different models. We've integrated F5 AI Guardrails with NVIDIA NeMo Guardrails to change that. By separating security enforcement from the AI application itself, we're giving organizations centralized, consistent governance without slowing down development. 👉 Learn how we're simplifying production AI security: https://go.f5.net/bgmpztmu via The Fast Mode.

    Is your enterprise AI exposing you to PII leaks or prompt injection attacks? 🛡️ ICYMI: Securing #AI applications requires more than just traditional web defense. You need security that understands the nuances of Large Language Models (LLMs). The new F5 AI Gateway integrates seamlessly with our Application Delivery and Security Platform (ADSP) and gives you to ability to enforce over 20 real time security and compliance polices—from PII redaction to jailbreak defense, ensuring your data stays safe. 👉 Learn more: https://go.f5.net/ns86u57o

    The AI security market is approaching an important realization: the model is only one part of the attack surface. As AI systems call APIs, retrieve enterprise data, invoke tools, and delegate work to agents, security moves beyond model safety. It becomes an application, data, identity, and infrastructure problem. That shift changes where enterprises need control. The most important security decisions will increasingly happen at runtime, where AI systems connect, communicate, and act. I'm excited to see F5 positioned in the Market Shapers quadrant in the Gartner® Emerging Market Quadrant™ for AI Application Security in the September 2026 report. It's an encouraging signal that the industry is moving toward securing AI where enterprises actually run it. F5 CMO, John Maddison, explains more in his latest blog: https://go.f5.net/deir39ks

    Legacy "bot or not" rules can't tell the difference between authorized AI driving legitimate business and malicious fraud bots. 🤖 ⚠️ We’re changing the game. We've added real-time device intelligence and specialized agentic AI protections to F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense. Now, you can safely welcome trusted AI workflows while stopping automated abuse in its tracks. 👉 Read the full story: https://go.f5.net/lwkkxn78 via The Fast Mode

    If your only defense against automated fraud is forcing users through frustrating CAPTCHA loops, you're degrading your digital experience. When credential stuffing, account takeover, and automated bots weaponize AI, security teams need continuous, real-time telemetry to make risk decisions—not clunky human-testing friction. By identifying persistent device signals and tampering attempts inline, we give SecOps the precision to block malicious traffic while keeping the digital doors wide open for legitimate consumers and trusted AI agents. Learn how we're upgrading F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense with real-time risk scoring and dynamic workflow enforcement. 🔗 https://go.f5.net/nfq46msa via Help Net Security
