CASB

A Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) is a security tool that sits between an organization's users and cloud service providers to monitor and control data access. CASBs enforce security policies, detect unauthorized activities, and prevent data exfiltration across SaaS applications and cloud platforms. For AI governance, CASBs are critical for monitoring how employees interact with cloud-based AI tools, ensuring sensitive data isn't improperly shared with third-party AI services, and maintaining compliance with data residency and privacy regulations.

CASB and DLP Cannot See Inside AI Prompts. That Is Now a Material Control Gap.

A SecurityWeek analysis co-authored with Cato Networks argues that traditional cloud access security broker and data loss prevention tools are structurally unable to detect AI-specific risks because those risks occur inside prompt content and model responses, not at the application access layer. The piece calls on enterprise security and governance teams to add an interaction-aware inspection layer covering prompt intent, response sensitivity, and agent action authorization. Agentic workflows are identified as the highest-urgency area, with prompt injection elevated from an edge case to a core operational risk.
