IBM has launched the IBM Guardium Data Security Center, an advanced solution to protect data in any environment and throughout its lifecycle. This tool allows organizations to manage their data security in a unified way, integrating workflows, monitoring, governance, detection and response, as well as cryptography and key management in a single control panel.

The IBM Guardium Data Security Center provides a comprehensive view of an enterprise’s data assets, making it easy for security teams to integrate multiple functions into a single pane of glass. This includes data monitoring and governance, incident detection and response, data security posture management and artificial intelligence, as well as cryptography and key management. Additionally, the center incorporates generative artificial intelligence capabilities that help generate risk summaries and increase the productivity of security professionals.

One of the center’s standout features is IBM Guardium AI Security, software designed to protect organizations’ AI deployments from security vulnerabilities and data governance policy violations. At a time when the adoption of generative artificial intelligence is booming, and with it the risk of “hidden AI” (unauthorized models), this tool becomes essential.

IBM Guardium AI Security and IBM Guardium Quantum Safe

The IBM Guardium Data Security Center also includes IBM Guardium Quantum Safe, software that helps customers protect encrypted data from the potential risk of future cyberattacks driven by malicious actors gaining access to cryptographically relevant quantum computers. This software is based on the expertise of IBM Research, including IBM post-quantum cryptography algorithms, and the knowledge of IBM Consulting.

Akiba Saeedi, vice president of Security Product Management at IBM, comments that “generative artificial intelligence and quantum computing offer immense opportunities, but they also bring new risks.” During this transformative period, organizations must improve their crypto agility and carefully monitor their AI models, training data, and their usage. IBM Guardium Data Security Center, with its integrated capabilities such as AI Security and Quantum Safe, provides comprehensive risk visibility.

IBM Guardium Quantum Safe helps organizations gain visibility and manage their enterprise cryptographic security posture to address vulnerabilities and guide remediation. It allows companies to enforce policies based on external, internal, and government regulations, integrating cryptographic algorithms used in code, vulnerabilities detected in code, and network usages into a single dashboard.

This way, security analysts can monitor policy violations and track progress, without having to gather information spread across multiple systems, tools, and departments. Guardium Quantum Safe offers customizable metadata and flexible reporting so that critical vulnerabilities can be prioritized for remediation.

In this era of hybrid cloud, artificial intelligence and quantum computing, IBM positions itself as a trusted partner with an integrated approach to data security, offering advanced solutions to protect critical information and ensure the privacy and security of data. digital credentials.
