Cognizant Secure AI Services is a newly launched integrated offering designed to help enterprises secure, govern and scale AI and agentic systems throughout their operations. The service aims to mitigate risks such as manipulated models, poisoned prompts and corrupted agent behavior that traditional cybersecurity tools cannot detect.

The solution is built on three core pillars: a secure Agent Development Lifecycle (ADLC) that embeds protection across design, build, test and deployment phases; Cognizant Neuro Cybersecurity, a centralized control plane unifying AI and enterprise security signals; and a continuous Responsible AI trust layer providing traceability, policy enforcement and compliance support.

Cognizant is already working with more than 250 global enterprises, particularly in regulated industries, to integrate Secure AI Services into digital transformation and AI deployment programs. Early use cases focus on preventing deepfake fraud, securing autonomous agents, managing generative AI risks and establishing governance frameworks for audit and compliance.
