77% of firms update AI security, but only 26% enforce it, revealing a major AI security gap.

A new report from Check Point Software reveals that while 77% of organizations have updated their security strategies to address AI risks, only 26% have the architecture to enforce these protections effectively. This gap exposes enterprises to increased AI-driven cyber threats, with 78% reporting AI-related security incidents in the past year. The report highlights challenges like infrastructure misalignment, limited visibility, and inconsistent access controls. Experts stress the need for unified, prevention-first security architectures to close this enforcement gap and protect AI workloads across hybrid environments.
