F5 and Forcepoint are collaborating to integrate data discovery and classification with runtime protection and continuous monitoring for artificial intelligence (AI) systems across the AI lifecycle.
The increasing deployment of AI across areas such as copilots, assistants, and automated workflows has introduced challenges for existing security approaches. Organisations often face difficulties in identifying where sensitive data is stored, tracking how it moves through AI systems, and addressing risks that emerge during production. Differences between data governance, application security, and runtime protection can also create gaps in overall AI security.
In response to these challenges, F5 and Forcepoint are combining their capabilities through Forcepoint’s AI-native Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) and F5’s Application Delivery and Security Platform (ADSP). This combination is designed to provide runtime protection for AI applications, APIs, models, and agents, with the aim of improving visibility and control over sensitive data during AI operations.
The framework is intended to support real-time detection and response to data-related risks, helping security teams identify higher-risk AI use cases, apply runtime controls to AI interactions, and monitor system behaviour for anomalies. Continuous telemetry and policy validation are used to help ensure AI systems operate in line with enterprise governance requirements.
The partnership focuses on combining data intelligence with runtime AI protection. Forcepoint supports discovery, classification, prioritisation, and governance of data, while F5 provides enforcement of security policies across APIs, applications, and related infrastructure.
This approach is positioned to allow organisations to implement AI solutions without requiring major changes to existing security architectures, by aligning data security with application and API protection.
At the RSA Conference, attendees can learn more about these technologies at F5’s booth and the Forcepoint Experience Centre.
