AI’s Double-Edged Sword: Boosting Apps While Battling Identity Threats
AI is revolutionizing industries, but brings new security challenges, especially identity-related ones. Learn how to defend GenAI apps from identity threats, and leverage AI to enhance your security strategy. As AI integrates into more apps, safeguarding user data becomes crucial. Discover strategies to build secure, AI-ready applications.

Hot Take:
AI is like that friend who always shows up uninvited—sometimes it’s a lifesaver, and other times it eats all your snacks and leaves you with a mess to clean up. While AI is busy revolutionizing everything from your dating apps to your grandma’s sewing machine, it’s also serving up a buffet of security challenges, particularly when it comes to identity. Who knew AI could be such an overachiever?
Key Points:
- AI is everywhere and it’s here to stay—like glitter at a craft party.
- Identity-related security challenges are the new “it” problem in AI-powered applications.
- Four critical requirements for GenAI apps: authentication, API calls, asynchronous workflows, and RAG authorization.
- AI isn’t just for good guys—bad actors are using it too, making security a bigger concern.
- AI can also be your ally in sniffing out security threats faster than a bloodhound on a scent trail.
