Some of the essential questions security teams ought to be asking themselves include: How do we manage and safeguard aspects like confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data? What strategies can we employ to protect our data against cyber threats and misuse? How do we address the security challenges that emerge with expanding data repositories? How do we differentiate between valuable data and redundant information?

Security teams may need to engage in discussions with business units to clarify issues such as how we are applying our data.

With whom is this data being shared? Who holds accountability for it? Who is responsible for making decisions regarding data security? Is it the information security team, the chief executive, the board, or is it a combined effort?

Although AI technologies aren't new, the recent widespread adoption of AI has introduced a myriad of business and security challenges for organizations.

Key questions to consider include: How do we monitor AI usage within the organization? How do we regulate the data shared with AI systems by employees? How do we ensure ongoing compliance with ethical standards and legal requirements?

Data is the cornerstone of AI. How do we provide sufficient data for AI systems while ensuring this data is secure, ethical, and transparent? How do we safeguard AI data and algorithms from manipulation by threat actors? Security teams need to be vigilant about all AI-related risks, including ethical concerns.
