Expert guide to create Zero Trust digital environments in an AI-everywhere landscape
Rise of the Machines: A Project Zero Trust Story is a continuation of the 2023 bestseller Project Zero Trust,
picking up where the first book left off and addressing issues not
covered in the first installment: artificial intelligence, mergers and
acquisitions, antivirus, business continuity, and remote work.
Artificial Intelligence is the dominant issue discussed in every
chapter, providing a case-study-based approach to applying zero trust
principles to all the various aspects of artificial intelligence, from
MLOps, used by security teams, to use of GPTs, chatbots, and adversarial
AI.
AI transforms technology by enabling
unprecedented automation and decision-making, but securing it with a
Zero Trust approach is essential because AI inherently relies on trusted
data and systems, making it a target for manipulation. The book also
includes discussion around regulatory issues and the alignment of
regulation around Zero Trust practices.
