- Only 2% of companies are very ready for AI
- Less than a third have deployed Firewalls from AI to date
- Another of every three could do with the diversification of their AI models
Although more and more applications obtain AI reviews, the new F5 research establishes that only 2% of companies are very ready for AI.
More than one in five (21%) fall into the low preparation category, and although three quarters (77%) are considered moderately lists, they continue to face safety and governance obstacles.
This occurs when one in four applications uses AI, with many organizations dividing its use of AI in multiple models, including payments such as GPT-4 and open source models such as Llama, Mistral and Gemma.
Companies do not benefit from the AI to which they have access
Although 71% of the report of the AI status application strategy said that respondents said they use AI to improve security, F5 highlighted continuous challenges with security and governance. Less than one in three (31%) have deployed AI Firewalls, and only 24% perform continuous data labeling, potentially increasing the risks.
Looking towards the future, one in two (47%) says they plan to display AI firewalls in next year. F5 also recommends that companies diversify AI models in the use paid and open source, the use of AI to operations, analysis and security and implement specific protections of AI as firewalls and data governance strategies.
At this time, it is estimated that two thirds (65%) use two or more paid models and at least one open source model, which demonstrates a considerable space for improvement.
“As IA becomes central for commercial strategy, preparation requires more than experimentation: it demands security, scalability and alignment,” said F5 CPO and how John Maddison.
The report highlights how companies that the lack of maturity can suffocate growth, introduce operating bottlenecks and present compliance challenges.
“The AI is already transforming security operations, but without mature governance and specially designed protections, companies run the risk of amplifying threats,” Maddison added.
