Treating #AI as a separate layer? That’s where risk begins. 🚨 As organizations move from GenAI experimentation to private LLMs and agentic systems, security must evolve with it—embedded across identity, network, data, and APIs.

Organizations that operate at machine speed where detection, validation, and mitigation are tightly integrated will have the advantage. Those that don’t will be outpaced. 👉 Read more from #Fortinet CISO Dr Carl Windsor: https://lnkd.in/g8Tz7GQ9
