As Shadow AI and AI-driven attacks surge, SandboxAQ delivers an end-to-end AI security posturemanagement solution with complete visibility, risk analysis, and compliance monitoringDubai, United Arab Emirates – December 09, 2025 — SandboxAQ, a pioneer in AI-drivencybersecurity, has announced an AI-SPM offering that offers full visibility into where AI is being usedin organizations’ tech stacks and evaluates AI assets for exploitable weaknesses, insecuredependencies, and exposure risks such as prompt injection, data leakage and unauthorized access.The offering is purpose-built to help organizations address the rapidly growing threat of “shadow AI”before it leads to material breaches.Recent SandboxAQ research reveals a widening blind spot in enterprise security: while 79% oforganizations are running AI in production, 72% have never completed a full AI security assessmentand only 6% have implemented a comprehensive AI-native security strategy. More than half of thosesurveyed said they are highly concerned about exposed credentials and secrets in AI systems, butonly 39% have dedicated tools to manage them. These gaps are especially troubling as recentreports show state-sponsored hackers hijacking commercial AI models to largely automate large-scale cyber-espionage campaigns against major corporations and governments. This researchhighlights an industry need for in-depth visibility into AI usage and purpose-built AI security controls.”AI is transforming a lot of industries and simultaneously expanding the attack surface faster thantraditional security tools can keep up,” said Jack Hidary, CEO at SandboxAQ. “We’re seeing attackersweaponize AI tools to exfiltrate sensitive data, manipulate internal systems, and automate large-scaleintrusions. If organizations don’t have clear visibility into how AI and agents are being used acrosstheir environment, they’re operating blindly. Security teams need to act now before an unmanaged AIsystem becomes the source of their next breach.”AQtive Guard’s AI-SPM offering enables organizations to discover, analyze and secure their entire AIecosystem – from the models themselves to the applications and data with which they interact. Unliketraditional security posture management tools, which aren’t built for AI systems or AI-enabled securitythreats, SandboxAQ extends its cryptographic scanning technology to AI systems, using the samedeep-inspection approach to discover and analyze hidden AI assets. This provides security teamswith a comprehensive, code-to-cloud view of AI risks.Key features of AQtive Guard’s AI-SPM offering include:• Discover AI assets (cloud → code): Automatically identify all AI assets across theorganization, including models, agents and MCP servers.• Assess AI asset risks: Evaluate AI assets for exploitable weaknesses, insecuredependencies, and exposure risks such as prompt injections and data leakage.• Enforce AI policies and compliance: Apply governance frameworks and access customcontrols to ensure AI systems align with internal standards and regulatory requirements.• Monitor, detect and respond to threats: Continuously observe AI pipelines to detectanomalies or attacks and manage incidents.
