Why red team exercises for AI should be on a CISO’s radar
CSO Online – Ericka Chickowski
Forward-looking security pundits believe that the field of AI risk management and AI assurance will be a growing domain for CISOs and cybersecurity leaders to get a handle on in the coming years. Fundamental to managing AI risks will be threat modeling and testing for weaknesses in AI deployments. AI red teams secure AI systems through exercises, threat modeling, and risk assessment exercises. Recent reports show that tech giants like Facebook and Microsoft have created AI red teams to explore the risks around their AI threat environment. The list of known risks from AI is still burgeoning, but already security experts have identified potential attack or malfunction scenarios that could cause the AI to act unpredictably or present incorrect output. Similarly, risks are emerging from AI that could expose huge swaths of personally identifiable information or valuable intellectual property to breach disclosure.
