Today we announced an easy-to-deploy integration between F5 BIG-IP SSL Orchestrator and the WitnessAI platform. AI applications are growing at an incredible rate – we are tracking thousands in our Shadow AI dashboard today. It’s not just a matter of data loss; AI apps can provide misinformation or influence users to act in harmful ways. Blocking every app isn’t really a solution, since many of these apps help employees become much more productive. Instead, enterprises need a way to provide access to AI apps that is both safe and effective.
F5 BIG-IP SSL Orchestrator provides an incredibly powerful and flexible way to manage encrypted network traffic across multiple security products, at scale. With WitnessAI, BIG-IP users can now get deep insights into enterprise AI traffic as well.
Customers using both products can quickly gain visibility and control over all encrypted traffic, including traffic to any AI applications already available to your employees on the internet. Through a single solution for inspecting and controlling all network and AI traffic, enterprises can enhance, secure, and optimize existing technology investments. Together, F5 and WitnessAI help organizations of any size give their people AI superpowers to work more productively and effectively.
