Overcome top AI security threats
Most organizations consume AI directly from their cloud providers. While security guardrails are in place in most LLMs, the integration of AI into an organization’s systems can lead to unforeseen security challenges. From reducing the risk of data poisoning and model manipulation to identifying and blocking common prompt injection techniques, Thales AI Security Fabric addresses a majority of the OWASP GenAI Security Top 10 threats to LLMs by uncovering vulnerabilities, protecting data, and detecting malicious activity in real time.

Frequently asked questions
Cloud data security is essential for enterprises and governments because it protects sensitive information from threats, ensures compliance with regulations, and safeguards critical assets across diverse cloud environments. By implementing robust cloud data security measures, organizations can reduce risks of data breaches and maintain trust with customers and stakeholders.
An effective cloud data security strategy includes data encryption, strong access controls, continuous monitoring, and incident response planning. These components work together to protect sensitive data, ensure only authorized users have access, and quickly address security threats in the cloud. By combining these measures, organizations can better secure their cloud environments and reduce the risk of data breaches.
Cloud data security solutions support hybrid and multi-cloud environments by providing consistent protection, policy enforcement, and visibility across multiple platforms. These solutions enable organizations to securely manage sensitive data regardless of where it resides, ensuring compliance and reducing risk as workloads move between public, private, and multiple cloud providers. By offering centralized controls, cloud data security helps streamline operations and safeguard assets in complex cloud landscapes.
Native cloud security controls are built-in features provided by cloud service providers, offering baseline security for their platforms. In contrast, enterprise cloud data security solutions deliver advanced, unified protection, policy enforcement, and visibility across multiple cloud environments, helping organizations meet complex regulatory and operational requirements. This enhanced approach ensures consistent security for sensitive data as it moves across diverse cloud infrastructures.
Cloud data security solutions help organizations meet digital sovereignty requirements by enabling control over data location, access, and compliance with regional regulations. These solutions provide robust encryption, policy enforcement, and visibility, ensuring sensitive information remains protected and compliant with local laws even across international cloud infrastructures. This empowers organizations to confidently maintain regulatory obligations and privacy standards in the cloud.
Cloud data security solutions support secure cloud migrations by ensuring sensitive data remains protected throughout the transition process. They provide encryption, access control, and centralized policy enforcement, enabling organizations to move workloads confidently between environments while maintaining compliance and minimizing risk. These capabilities streamline migration efforts and safeguard assets during every stage of the move.
Cloud data security solutions integrate seamlessly with existing security infrastructure by connecting with identity management systems, security information and event management (SIEM) tools, and other security platforms. This integration enables unified monitoring, centralized policy enforcement, and streamlined incident response across cloud and on-premises environments. As a result, organizations can maintain consistent security controls and visibility throughout their entire IT landscape.
