How to Guard Your Data from Exposure in ChatGPT – The Hacker News
ChatGPT has transformed the way businesses generate textual content, which can potentially result in a quantum leap in productivity. However, Generative AI innovation also introduces a new dimension of data exposure risk, when employees inadvertently type or paste sensitive business data into ChatGPT, or similar applications. DLP solutions, the go-to solution for similar challenges, are ill-equipped to handle these challenges, since they focus on file-based data protection.
A new report by LayerX, “Browser Security Platform: Guard your Data from Exposure in ChatGPT” (Download here), sheds light on the challenges and risks of ungoverned ChatGPT usage. It paints a comprehensive picture of the potential hazards for businesses and then offers a potential solution: browser security platforms. Such platforms provide real-time monitoring and governance over web sessions, effectively safeguarding sensitive data.
Traditional DLP solutions are designed to protect data stored in files, not data inserted into web sessions. They are ineffective against the risks posed by ChatGPT.
Browser security platforms offer real-time visibility and enforcement capabilities on live web sessions. They can monitor and govern all means by which users provide input to ChatGPT, offering a level of protection that traditional DLP solutions cannot match.
Browser security platforms offers three levels of protection:
A browser security platform allows for a mix of blocking, alerting, and allowing actions across these three levels, enabling organizations to customize their data protection strategies.
The browser security platform is the only solution today that can effectively guard against data exposure risks in ChatGPT, enabling organizations to harness the full potential of AI-driven text generators without compromising on data security. For more insights, download the report.
