AI Security for Marketing

F5 Newsroom Staff

Marketing teams are embracing GenAI to create content faster, personalize campaigns, and analyze customer insights. But these tools also introduce new risks that can harm brand reputation, violate compliance requirements, or expose sensitive data:

• Leakage of proprietary creative assets, customer data, or campaign IP
• Harmful or biased outputs damaging brand voice and trust
• Limited oversight into how AI-generated content is created and shared
• Compliance gaps with data protection and advertising regulations

Our AI runtime security solutions secure the Marketing vertical with a combination of Guardrails for real-time protection and inbuilt observability for full oversight.
