The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) has announced the launch of the AI Resilience Center of Excellence as part of the CSAI Foundation, CSA’s 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to AI security and safety. The vendor-neutral, community-driven initiative is designed to help enterprises and public sector organizations protect, monitor, contain, and recover data and systems in the age of AI agents and autonomous workflows.
“As organizations accelerate their adoption of AI and autonomous systems, they’re also entering an era where AI-driven failures will become increasingly common, due to both sophisticated threat actors and the complexity of deploying AI at enterprise scale. Helping organizations solve these issues is why we founded the AI Resilience Center of Excellence,” said Jim Reavis, CEO and co-founder, Cloud Security Alliance.
Backed by practical guidance, research, executive education, and operational best practices, the Center will both feed and draw on other CSAI initiatives to turn AI resilience into a recognised operational discipline. The Center will be guided by an advisory committee of resilience experts, noted cyber security practitioners, and leaders addressing resilience issues at a board level.
Initiatives include:
- Development of an AI Resilience Reference Architecture
- Board and executive briefings
- Tabletop exercise kits
- Guidance series for security and technology practitioners with maturity models and metrics.
