The RSA Conference, held in San Francisco from May 6- 9, brings up security experts from across the globe. How can recursive AI be used to defend against attacks and how can generating AI itself be secured at this year’s meeting?
We’re bringing up the RSA information for enterprise business technology that is most important to IT and it decision-makers. More it news highlights may be added throughout this article.
Google adds Gemini AI to its Google Security Operations and more.
In a novel product called Google Threat Intelligence, Google is combining the surveillance prowess of Mandiant, malware sensor VirusTotal, Gemini AI, and Google’s individual user and system footprint. Accessible May 6 wherever Google Cloud Security is distributed, Google Threat Intelligence uses Gemini AI to get a best- down look at safety information, competing with Microsoft’s Copilot for Security.
In contrast, Google announced:
- New, carefully selected Google Security Operations alerts that were updated to reflect just discovered threats and aim to lessen manual processes and provide recommendations for outcomes for the wider Google Cloud.
- Artificial consulting services from Mandiant, which is reddish crew both an group’s AI defenses and how an organization’s security may be compromised by AI.
- Gemini in safety being used by new solutions.

IBM and AWS study: Generative AI’s unexpected challenges worry the C- set
During RSA, IBM and AWS released a record detailing how business leaders are considering securing conceptual AI. Less than a quarter ( 24 % ) of respondents to the study said they were including security in their generative AI projects, which is a likely indication that hyperscalers have a niche to fill as the security industry becomes more popular.
The majority of respondents expressed concern about the security impact of generative AI, with 51 % saying they were concerned about unanticipated risks and emerging security vulnerabilities, and 47 % watching for new attacks aimed at AI. In a answer, IBM presented its Framework for Securing Generative AI, which was released in January 2024.
In order to secure conceptual Artificial, IBM, and AWS, danger and governance frameworks may be crucial, according to the report. In contrast, IBM is extending its X- Force Red screening services to AI, including conceptual AI software, MLSecOps pipes and AI models.

Proofpoint adds AI-selection to products for email security.
At RSA, Proofpoint announced two novel email security services:
- To stop email fraud or malicious links before they get to Microsoft 365 and Google Workplace inboxes, large language model-based detection of social engineering emails is used to perform pre-delivery semantic analysis.
- High-value targets can automatically be quarantined and explained for behavioral anomalies using Adaptive Email Security, an integrated cloud email security solution.
May 6 is the last day to request either of these email security services. Only select customers who already have standard email security packages and have identified high-risk employees can receive Adaptive Email Security on a rolling basis.
Cisco and Splunk expand Cisco Hypershield
One of Cisco’s initial results from its March acquisition of Splunk was unveiled at RSA on May 6th. Cisco’s Cisco Hypershield data center and cloud security product now has two capabilities:
- In runtime workload environments, identify and stop attacks originating from unidentified vulnerabilities.
- Isolate suspected workloads.
Cisco also made the announcement that the Cisco Duo security platform now includes Cisco Identity Intelligence AI analytics, adding particular tools to stop identity-based attacks.
On May 6, Splunk unveiled a new asset and risk intelligence tool called Asset and Risk Intelligence. The early access period for Splunk Asset and Risk Intelligence is now.
