The award-winning solution, Aqua Secure AI, is designed to provide end-to-end security for AI applications deployed in Kubernetes and other cloud-native environments. Unlike traditional tools, it integrates AI security directly at the application layer without requiring code modifications or affecting performance. By combining in-depth visibility during development with intelligent runtime defenses, Secure AI monitors prompt activity and model usage, applying context-aware security policies in real time. This approach protects against threats such as prompt injection, jailbreak attempts, and unsafe model behavior, all without relying on SDKs or proxies. Its embedded agent provides full workload visibility, enabling continuous governance and protection across the entire AI lifecycle.

Dror Davidoff, co-founder and CEO of Aqua Security, commented, “Modern security demands are evolving faster than traditional tools can keep up. Leveraging our years of container security expertise, Secure AI delivers a scalable, forward-looking solution that stays ahead of both threats and competitors. With forecasts predicting over a billion new AI applications by 2028—most containerized—our mission is to safeguard this rapidly growing attack surface.”
