ArmorCode: AI Exposure Management and Governing Shadow AI
AI is moving faster than most governance models can keep up. As organizations race to adopt new AI tools, developer workflows, agents and MCP servers, security leaders must enable innovation without losing control over risk, accountability and oversight. In this segment, ArmorCode will discuss its new AI Exposure Management (AIEM) solution, as part of the ArmorCode Agentic AI Platform. ArmorCode will highlight how AIEM gives enterprises clearer visibility into where AI is being used, who owns it and the potential risks it introduces across heterogeneous environments. By turning AI usage and signals from existing security and IT systems into governed, auditable outcomes, AIEM helps organizations reduce shadow AI risk, assign accountability and accelerate AI adoption with stronger control and board-ready governance. ArmorCode will also share findings from its new 2026 State of AI Risk Management report, developed in partnership with The Purple Book Community and based on responses from more than 650 enterprise security leaders. The discussion will connect ArmorCode’s latest product innovation to the broader industry need for scalable, enterprise-ready AI risk governance.
ArmorCode AI Exposure Management is available now as a solution deployed on the ArmorCode Agentic AI Platform. To learn more, visit https://securityweekly.com/armorcodersac.
Beyond IOCs: A Framework for High-Impact Cyber Threat Intelligence
In a time where the ability to turn intelligence into decisive action is a true competitive advantage, organizations must move beyond reactive alert triage to a proactive, threat-informed defense. This segment explores how unifying threat intelligence with adversarial attack simulation enables a Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) framework that replaces hype with measurable outcomes. We will discuss why these are no longer just technical security conversations, but critical business strategies that provide the board and C-suite with the clarity and confidence to reduce risk and focus resources where they matter most.
