Thales has introduced a new AI Security Fabric, a major step forward in securing AI ecosystems as organizations rapidly expand their use of AI technologies. As artificial intelligence becomes deeply embedded in modern business operations, the benefits are undeniable—ranging from accelerated innovation to enhanced operational efficiency. However, this accelerated adoption also brings new risks. The latest McKinsey data shows that 78% of companies now use AI in at least one business function, a significant increase from 55% just two years ago. In response, 73% of organizations are already investing in AI-specific security tools, according to the 2025 Thales Data Threat Report. These statistics highlight a growing urgency for solutions that can secure AI models, applications, data, and user interactions.
To address these emerging threats, Thales is launching the foundational components of its AI Security Fabric, a solution designed to safeguard both the core and edge layers of an enterprise’s AI operations. As organizations deploy agentic AI systems, large language models, and complex automation workflows, the need for robust, real-time protection becomes critical.
Thales AI Security Fabric aims to help enterprises adopt AI with confidence by protecting applications, data flows, and identities end-to-end. With this new solution, organizations can:
Accelerate AI-driven innovation securely: The platform minimizes risks related to prompt injection, model manipulation, data leakage, and exposure of sensitive or regulated information. This gives companies the freedom to scale AI initiatives without compromising security.
Protect data, applications, and identities holistically: Thales offers controlled data access for agentic and generative AI systems while enabling runtime security across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises deployments. The approach requires minimal development changes, making integration easier for technical teams.
Adopt security aligned with global standards: Thales builds on enterprise-grade practices, including protection against the most significant OWASP Top 10 AI risks, helping organizations prevent operational, financial, or reputational damage.
Thales has released the first two capabilities under the AI Security Fabric:
AI Application Security
This solution focuses on shielding enterprise-built applications powered by LLMs. It protects against a wide range of AI-specific attacks—including jailbreaking attempts, prompt injection, system prompt exposure, model denial-of-service, sensitive data leaks, and harmful content generation. Companies can deploy it flexibly across cloud-native, on-premises, or hybrid architectures.
AI RAG Security
As retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) becomes a core part of enterprise AI strategies, Thales provides tools to discover and secure sensitive structured and unstructured data before it is used in RAG pipelines. The offering includes encryption, key management, and secure communication pathways between LLMs and external data sources.
Sebastien Cano, Senior Vice President of Thales’ Cyber Security Products Business, underscored the need for purpose-built AI security solutions. He stated, “As AI reshapes business operations, organizations require security solutions tailored to the specific risks posed by Agentic AI and Gen AI applications. Thales AI Security Fabric offers enterprises specialized tools to secure AI applications while minimizing operational complexity. Supported by decades of security expertise, Thales enables businesses to confidently scale their AI adoption, safeguarding sensitive data, applications, and user interactions.”
Thales plans significant expansions to the AI Security Fabric next year. New capabilities will include:
Advanced data leakage prevention
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) security gateway
End-to-end runtime access control
These additions will strengthen data flow protection, secure agentic AI data access, and ensure unified governance across AI systems, users, and data environments.
As AI becomes integral to digital transformation, Thales is positioning itself as a leader in securing AI-powered environments, helping enterprises innovate safely and responsibly.
