Security and digital sovereignty in the age of AI

Today's cybersecurity landscape is evolving rapidly—fragmented perimeters, Al-driven threats, single points of failure, and supply chain vulnerabilities demand multi-layered defenses. Siloed teams, complex data sovereignty requirements, and jurisdictional compliance pressures strain resources, putting your critical data at constant risk.

Open source access without oversight

Teams that use unmanaged open source software and packages leave their organizations vulnerable by inheriting supply chain security issues without the resources to manage them effectively.

Evolving Al-specific threats

Security and compliance requirements shift to accommodate the complexity of external risks, especially as Al continues to scale and develop. Windows of opportunity for exploitation make Al applications and models attractive targets for malicious actors.

Challenges to digital sovereignty

Driven by shifts in geopolitics, supply chains, and Al, digital sovereignty has become critical for organizations and governments needing to maintain technological and economic autonomy.

Red Hat Portfolio Security: From the OS to autonomous AI agents

Built around four core areas of Red Hat's layered, defense-in-depth security approach, our technologies help protect your stack, whether you control infrastructure directly or rely on public clouds through our partner ecosystem. By showing enterprises how to implement a layered security approach, your organization remains secure and in control.

Security-focused foundation

Our foundational platforms, Red Hat Enterprise Linux® and Red Hat OpenShift®, are developed using rigorous software supply chain security processes. Each solution provides robust, reliable infrastructure for developing and deploying a wide range of applications, including AI/ML models. Our container security best practices are applied to your entire hybrid cloud environment.

Software and AI supply chain security

Applications and AI systems are treated as containerized software, delivering reliability, governance, and compliance from development to production. Customers can integrate security into their AI workflows with LLM/ML model evaluation and policy enforcement. DevSecOps principles and Red Hat Trusted Software Supply Chain help protect against vulnerabilities, malicious code, and tampering across the entire lifecycle.

Sovereign AI

Red Hat supports organizations in maintaining digital sovereignty by helping keep sensitive data and proprietary models within their own jurisdictional or physical boundaries. Our open hybrid cloud gives customers the building blocks for adaptability, autonomy, and independence.

Security automation at scale

Our integrated approach guides organizations in managing and automating open hybrid cloud environments. We help customers maintain control over their security and compliance by implementing zero trust principles, continuous security updates, and AI-specific guardrails.
