What CISOs Must Ask AI Security Vendors

AI introduces security risks beyond traditional tools, covering user protection, app security, runtime defense, and agent governance. This overview provides vendor-neutral questions CISOs should ask when assessing AI security platforms in architecture, capabilities, compliance, and threat detection. Review it for thorough evaluation criteria.

AI is now central to enterprise operations, but traditional security tools can't address its unique risks, such as shadow AI, data leakage, and model manipulation. CISOs must balance AI adoption with governance, compliance, and emerging threats beyond standard security frameworks.

This guide provides vendor-neutral questions across seven key areas to help security leaders assess AI security platforms. Topics include:

· Securing AI users, applications, environments, and agents
· Visibility into AI adoption, usage, and risks
· Compliance with NIST AI RMF, MITRE ATLAS, and OWASP AI/LLM standards
