First and Leading AI TRiSM Platform continues to add innovative new capabilities to build on existing risk, security, governance, policy, education, audit, and network security orchestration capabilities.
Portal26, the GenAI Adoption Management Platform that helps enterprises secure and govern GenAI consumption as well as maximize GenAI impact, released today a company update on significant new product capabilities.
Portal26's GenAI Adoption Management solution was originally released for general availability in 2023 and already boasts enterprise grade maturity and widespread adoption. Portal26 announced four new capability pillars in addition to pre-existing GenAI security, risk management, governance, policy management, audit, education, and security orchestration capabilities that have been driving significant value for enterprise GenAI leaders over the last two years.
Portal26 CEO, Arti Raman said “In 2023 Portal26 became a trailblazer when we determined that enterprises needed to govern not just the production but also the consumption of GenAI. That belief led to the creation of the industry's first GenAI Adoption Management Platform. Today's announcement includes innovative capabilities that address new challenges brought forth by the fast-changing enterprise GenAI landscape. These features have been developed under the guidance of visionary GenAI leaders who, as our customers, have provided both the problems as well as guidance on powerful solutions that their peers can now utilize to improve their GenAI outcomes by orders of magnitude.”
Sylvia Acevedo, Board of Directors Qualcomm and Former CEO, Girl Scouts of the USA said “Security in the age of AI should not hold you back – it should propel you forward. Portal26 offers advanced protection with clear actionable intelligence so that your organization can move forward with confidence. This is the Portal26 standard: scalable performance, rigorous transparency, security that drives productivity, and measurable impact.”
Today's announcement from Portal26 includes the following updates:
Zero-Day ShadowAI Discovery: This unique offering from Portal26 analyzes every single external destination visited from within an enterprise and provides a real-time feed of all direct as well as embedded (indirect) AI being utilized across the organization. Complete lights-out automation ensures that ShadowAI can be monitored or blocked as soon as it hits the network. In addition to Portal26's own inline enforcement, zero-day enterprise ShadowAI information is also made available to a wide variety of existing and deployed network security tools. By taking an integrated approach to enterprise GenAI security, Portal26 ensures not only that its own solution has access to the most updated GenAI usage information, but also that other security tools on the enterprise network can also close GenAI gaps that would otherwise produce critical vulnerabilities and create unacceptable levels of risk. What distinguishes Portal26 from all other GenAI security solutions is that while everybody else is focused on building a global catalog of GenAI tools and sites, which is always behind by at least a few hundred tools, Portal26 has prioritized and perfected the mechanism by which their specific enterprise customer gets immediate and complete visibility into all the GenAI in their organization at all points in time. A Portal26 customer never has to worry about a global catalog failing to keep up with the pace of new GenAI tools. This breakthrough ShadowAI discovery engine processes millions of ShadowAI transactions every day and Portal26 offers highly trusted large enterprise references for interested prospects.
GenAI Strategy Module: This industry-first offering from Portal26 analyzes every GenAI transaction in the organization to understand not just where GenAI was used but also how and why. A series of AI powered pipelines break down granular intent information and organize enterprise-wide usage into use cases. Scores of enterprise customers have partnered with Portal26 to design strategy features and visualizations that enable value and risk analytics with the intention of optimizing GenAI investments, managing migrations, determining licensing, designing GenAI powered applications, and formulating agentic AI strategies. Portal26's GenAI Strategy Module currently organizes hundreds of GenAI use cases extracted from several hundred thousand users across scores of customers. Leading SI partners offer GenAI strategy and development solutions that are powered by Portal26's underlying platform. Customer and partner references are available upon request.
Enhanced NIST Certified GenAI Prompt Discovery Forensic Vault: Portal26 offers the industry's only NIST FIPS certified GenAI Forensic Vault for prompt discovery, regulatory reporting, GenAI audit, forensic investigation, insider risk management, legal discovery, and GenAI compliance. Portal26's forensic vault has been part of the original solution since 2023. Today's announcement includes enhancements to data enrichment, multi-level filtering, data exports, enhanced deep links for forensic investigation, and enhanced privacy controls to further support GenAI regulations in the EU and other compliance sensitive domains. The NIST FIPS 140 is an advanced encryption certification that Portal26 maintains in order to provide customers with the ability to retain prompts in a fully encrypted state while also benefiting from granular real-time analytics. Portal26 also uniquely offers customers the ability to own and control their own encryption keys to this forensic vault, giving them ultimate control over their data and also the ability to “turn it off” should the need arise. This advanced and enhanced data security foundation has earned Portal26 the trust of some of the largest and most highly-regulated enterprises who rely on Portal26 for their GenAI audit and forensic needs. What is most compelling about this offering from Portal26 is that all enterprises that operate in a regulated environment, such as financial services, critical infrastructure, healthcare, and government, require this capability in order to sanction the use of GenAI or take internal models into production. This has made Portal26 a critical component of the GenAI strategy for these organizations. References are available.
Expanded Deployment and Inline Security Controls: Portal26 now offers the industry's broadest and most versatile deployment options and expanded policy enforcement controls. Robust integrations with existing secure web gateways (SWG), firewalls, hyperscaler based GenAI offerings, network DLP solutions, Cloud Access Security Brokers (CASB) allow customers to go live in minutes. Additionally, Portal26 offers forward and reverse proxies as well as the option to configure GenAI traffic flows on endpoints directly. With a comprehensive set of options to activate on existing network tools, hyperscalers, deploy independently, or select a combination of data feeds, Portal26 makes GenAI governance and security as fast and easy as GenAI itself.
The above new product capabilities layer on top of an existing mature platform that covers the following key modules:
Portal26 GenAI Governance and Risk Management: Portal26's provides a comprehensive set of features to capture an organization's appetite for risk and desire for governance. This takes the form of risk bands, scoring, and a customizable risk and governance framework. Additionally, Portal26 enables full featured risk reporting at all levels including granular reporting for functional departments, executive reporting for heads of departments, C-Suite reporting, and Board reporting as well. Portal26's customers rely on the solution to provide insights to leadership teams that are valuable, actionable, and at the right altitude. One of the most unique features of Portal26's risk reporting is the solution's ability to provide both point-in-time reports and also time-trended analytics. In this fast-paced GenAI environment, snapshot reports are outdated the moment they are produced. In such scenarios, the evolution of key metrics over time becomes especially important.
Portal26 GenAI Security and Incident Management: Portal26 provides a broad and full featured security and incident management module. The module includes AI powered detectors that scan, parse, and analyze every prompt and attachment, comprehensive incident creation, notification, internal and external incident response workflows, insider risk detection and mitigation, SOC investigation, and downstream integration with SIEM, SOAR, ticketing, and other workflow solutions. Portal26 can be deployed to protect against risky behavior by performing inline enforcement. Portal26 can also be deployed in conjunction with existing inline controls such as firewalls, secure web gateways, cloud access security brokers, and DLP tools, to identify risky behavior and orchestrate existing controls to perform enforcement. Portal26 is unique in its ability to offer both types of architectures. This enables Portal26 to assist all types of customers, including extra large enterprises that utilize multiple modes at the same time.
Portal 26 GenAI Policy Management and User Education: Portal26 recognizes that no GenAI program can be successful without incorporating the human element. Portal26 allows organizations to create and distribute GenAI policy as well as educate users as they interact with GenAI across the organization. Further, as organizations determine elements of their GenAI strategy, Portal26 enables them to combine these human aspects into their overall GenAI program and value creation campaigns.
