Security Posture (AI)

Reviewed 9 April 2026 Canonical definition

Security posture for AI describes the overall strength of an organisation's defences against threats to its AI systems — encompassing agent identity controls, policy enforcement coverage, audit trail completeness, incident response readiness, and vulnerability management. A strong AI security posture reduces both the likelihood of successful attacks and the impact when incidents do occur.
