What are the emerging AI‑driven security risks that enterprises need to worry about?

Craig S. Smith 0:01
Can you talk about the risks that are developing with AI browsers and autonomous agents as they are designed by consumers or by users, but then are being integrated into the enterprise? a lot of GenTech tools that are not being developed inside the enterprise.
Bradon Rogers 0:21
The agent is working over an application. There's hidden instruction buried in the application. The agent goes and follows those instructions, thinking those are the human giving them instructions in the process. The agent's nothing more than me hopping out of this seat and you see an empty chair, but the agent's doing work on my behalf. And we want to have policies that are built and let the agents operate in the confines of a given policy, no more, no less, and make them live in a place where they can be enterprise ready, no matter what the AI provider is that you're using.
Craig S. Smith 0:45
Automation enables teams to build and run on-demand agents that operate at speed across enterprise applications. How does Island keep track of what's being built by teams in an enterprise? I usually start by having you introduce yourself to listeners and give as much of your background as is relevant and how you got to Island and then what Island does. And then we'll start talking about keeping the agentic world safe. I mean, that seems to be one of the focuses. So,
Bradon Rogers 1:33
Yeah, thanks, Greg. I'm Braden Rogers, Chief Customer Officer with Island. The role that I play is anything that's technology and engineering-centric that's in the field that touches customers is the world I work within every single day.
Craig S. Smith 1:45
Island just announced some new functionality. Can you talk about that?
Bradon Rogers 1:52
Yeah, 1,000%. First of all, it's important to acknowledge the incredible innovation that we're seeing every single day and the breakneck speed with which everyone's experiencing AI. And, you know, it's everything from, you know, people leveraging generative prompts to exchange information and to make their work more effective. And it's obviously led over into some really interesting areas around automation and agentic workflows as people have engaged it. And I think it's important to acknowledge that many of the players that are doing this work are doing some incredible work. A lot of your different providers, the big brand names that everybody knows well that are the AI players. But a lot of the work that we see from that ecosystem is very consumer-driven.
Bradon Rogers 2:44
There's nothing wrong with that at the end of the day. They're chasing billions of users around the world. But at the end of the day, when you're a large financial services firm, or a large healthcare provider, you certainly have concerns with these things, you know, making their way into your environment. And, and then also the other thing is you want users to be empowered. You want to, so you want to, you want to wrestle with the, this consumer need, this consumer thing. And there's some goodness, really, there's amazing goodness with it. And, you know, We certainly believe AI is here to kind of help us in the future, not to decimate our futures. But we want to be able to harness that and leverage that power and enable our users very effectively.
Bradon Rogers 3:28
And for us... There's an avenue that's really focused around enabling the user, but most importantly is allowing cybersecurity to have a role in one of those rare times in the universe of cybersecurity of being a true enabler. Let's weave AI into the fabric of the user's workflows and let's do it safely and let a cybersecurity team play a very deep role in that enablement. And that's what we announced yesterday with a series of capabilities I focus around the universe of AI that's square in the laps of everybody in the enterprise today.
Craig S. Smith 4:05
Yeah. Can you talk about the risks that are developing with AI browsers and autonomous agents as they are designed by consumers or by users? but then are being integrated into the enterprise. Is that the issue, really, that there are a lot of agentic tools that are not being developed inside the enterprise but are being brought into the enterprise?
