Product spotlight: How Red Hat AI operationalizes the full AI stack, from metal to agent
Exploring the capabilities of Red Hat AI Agent Ops
Layered protection in the age of AI: How Red Hat provides layered security from the OS to AI agents
Why are we still applying 1990s patching mentalities to an AI threat landscape? How do you build layered defense for the AI-driven enterprise? In an era where exploits are weaponized by the very technology we aim to deploy, an ""AI-Ready"" enterprise is only as resilient as its weakest architectural layer. Modern enterprise security requires a layered security strategy that ensures that a failure in one layer does not lead to a systemic breach. In this session, we explore how to move beyond the noise of vulnerability counting toward a layered, pragmatic layered security defense architecture, from the OS foundation to autonomous AI agents, ensuring enterprise resilience in the age of AI and emerging threats. Specifically, we will discuss how Red Hat helps you: Build a strong security foundation: Securing open source software in the age of AI threats & securing the underlying Linux OS and container platforms to ensure a trusted environment for AI workloads. Protect the pipeline: Integrating automated security safeguards throughout the software and AI lifecycle—from upstream open source to production including how Lightwell and other Red Hat technologies can help. Secure the Intelligence: Implementing security, safety, and governance for agentic AI Automate security at scale by default: Defending against machine-speed attacks with machine-speed automated response By delivering a layered cross-portfolio security architecture that is trustworthy by design, Red Hat weaves resilience into the very fabric of your infrastructure, application, and AI, ensuring your AI journey is built on a foundation of ""default-on"" security. Key takeaways: Why “defensive perimeter” security and 1990s patching mentalities no longer in the age of AI and emerging threats Why modern enterprises requires a layered security strategy in an AI-era How Red Hat can help implement a layered security defense, from the OS foundation to autonomous AI agents, ensuring enterprise resilience in the age of AI and emerging threats
