FOREWORD
Humanity has entered an unprecedented technological evolution. No mission, organization, job, or person
on the planet will go unimpacted by artificial intelligence this year. Revolutionizing every data-driven
opportunity, AI has the potential to bring on a new era of prosperity, allowing the quality of life to reach
unimaginable heights. Like any new groundbreaking technology, the potential for greatness is paralleled
only by the inherent risk. It is critical that we do not allow ourselves to tunnel solely on harvesting the
benefits of AI without responsibly mitigating those risks. Make no mistake, for all the distrust of the black
box nature of AI and the doom and gloom rhetoric of world domination, the greatest risk associated with
AI for the foreseeable future is bad people.
Artificial intelligence is, by a wide margin, the most vulnerable technology ever to be deployed in
production systems. It’s vulnerable at a code level, during training and development, post-deployment,
over networks, via generative outputs, and more. We do not need to look far into the traditional cyber
threat landscape to understand today’s adversarial AI aacks and predict their near-term paerns.
In this report, we shed light on these vulnerabilities and how they impact commercial and federal
organizations today. We provide insights from a survey of IT security and data science leaders navigating
these challenges. We share predictions driven by data from HiddenLayer’s experiences securing AI in
enterprise environments. Lastly, we reveal cuing-edge advancements in security controls for AI in all its
forms.
As we navigate an AI-driven era, let this report serve as a resource to understand and implement security
for AI. Whether you’re a developer, data scientist, or security professional, we invite you to join us in
securing AI for a safer future.
We are incredibly excited to present to you the first-ever HiddenLayer AI Threat Landscape Report.
