Overall Satisfaction with Cisco AI Defense
Cisco AI Defense is a new comprehensive security solution. It is new to the field and geared specially for AI workloads.
Instead of everyone using their own AI tools, Cisco AI Defense becomes the tool that everyone uses in organization for performing genuine AI searches and research.
It safeguards against third party tools accessing unlimited sources of data, and prevents data leaks that can pose significant security and data leakage risks.
Pros
- Stays within the framework of organization data searches
- It provide end-to-end protection for the entire AI lifecycle, from development, test and deployment to ongoing usage
- Prevents getting corrupted data that could be harmful
Cons
- Larger Large Language Models inclusion and associated RAG
- Better training and testing, tuning
- more comprehensive and better data modelling
- edge inference and tooling for various edge devices
- Enhances security guidelines, compliance and policy deployment
- Prevents data leaks and safety of integrity.
- Enables visibility and telemetry across environment
though no other product that I know is available that competes directly, Open AI is referenced as original ChatGPT functionality provider.
This space is fast developing and many new players are emerging offering their AI and Security defense products. Hope to provide better insights in few months.
