Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Application Security

Gartner’s recent whitepaper highlights the critical innovations transforming application security and the growing need for AI-driven governance solutions. As software architectures evolve and cyber threats increase, organizations must stay ahead by adopting cutting-edge security practices.

Key Findings:

  • Real-Time Visibility and Centralized Management: Cranium provides organizations with “real-time visibility of potential AI anomalies or attacks,” offering centralized alert management. This is crucial for businesses with multiple AI applications, ensuring they can “identify issues shared by multiple applications using the same AI model.”
  • AI Security and Anomaly Detection: As AI applications grow, especially public-facing ones, “these applications…require specialized controls to mitigate risks that could impact the organizations.” Cranium’s focus on “monitoring the model for out-of-policy, data leakage, performance drift, biased or toxic model input or output” ensures that AI models are aligned with organizational policies and protected against various security threats.
  • AI Regulatory Compliance: “Upcoming regulations, such as the EU AI Act and several U.S. laws, and existing enterprise policies potentially mandate the adoption of application security practices.” Cranium’s platform directly addresses these needs by providing “preventative controls and monitoring to support risk mitigation for high-risk AI systems,” making it a critical partner for organizations navigating the evolving regulatory landscape.
