In this blog, I want to walk through the prevalence of file uploads in GenAI usage and how Harmonic helps security teams keep control without blocking innovation.

If you're wondering how many AI tools employees are really using at work, you're not alone. It turns out the answer is: a lot more than most IT and security teams realize.

As enterprises grapple with expanding attack surfaces, skyrocketing alert volumes, and the rapid adoption of generative AI (GenAI), security leaders are rethinking their approaches. Here’s what the data shows and why it’s time to reinvent DLP.

What are the real risks of sharing sensitive data with GenAI tools like ChatGPT and Claude?

Without an AI asset inventory, organizations are flying blind, exposing sensitive data and missing critical compliance risks.

DeepSeek has completely disrupted how organizations approach GenAI governance. It has forced teams to rethink their AI policies and implementation strategies, showing just how flawed many current approaches are.

I recently sat down with Harmonic’s head of security, Ed Merrett, to speak about trust centers, technical transparency, and why we vendors need to do a better job of communicating how we’re protecting our customers’ data.

Over the next 18-24 months, organizations will face an increasingly complex regulatory environment as governments accelerate their oversight of artificial intelligence (AI). Among the most impactful frameworks right now is the EU AI Act, which officially entered force in August 2024. The first phase of its rollout begins in less than 1 month.

We engaged with ESG to evaluate how Harmonic Protect helps organizations safeguard sensitive data and prevent its spread and misuse, especially via generative AI applications.

As we approach the end of October, here’s a recap of all the new capabilities available in the Harmonic Protect portal.

Perplexity is an AI-powered search engine that launched in 2022. It does not build its own models; rather, it focuses on allowing users to ask questions and receive succinct summaries along with citations from reliable sources, rather than just a list of links to explore.Amid a rise in enterprise use, we dig into how Harmonic is helping to protect sensitive data being exposed.

GenAI Unleashed is based on Harmonic’s own random sample of 1,000 enterprise employees who have used at least one GenAI app in the last three months.

Today we’re announcing the availability of Harmonic Protect – a new way of approaching data protection that is more suited to the GenAI era. 

In our new guide, you’ll get access to practical advice for overcoming the data privacy challenges holding back GenAI adoption.

Headline AI threats are mostly just headlines right now. For the majority of us, it’s an evolution of what security should already be doing rather than a complete revolution. Beyond that, many of the ‘new’ AI threats are only relevant to those building their own LLMs.
