The past two years have witnessed an unprecedented surge in the adoption of generative artificial intelligence (AI) across various industries. And while this presents new efficiencies, with these benefits come significant security concerns.

During this interview Jim will explore why it’s imperative to implement robust security measures to mitigate these evolving risks effectively, and how working alongside an MSSP can benefit your overall security posture.
