ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE



 

The security challenges associated with AI parallel cybersecurity challenges
associated with previous generations of software that manufacturers did not
build to be secure by design, putting the burden of security on the customer.
Although AI software systems might differ from traditional forms of software,
fundamental security practices still apply.

As noted in the landmark Executive Order 14110, “Safe, Secure, And Trustworthy
Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI),” signed by the President on
October 30, 2023, “AI must be safe and secure.” As the nation’s cyber defense
agency and the national coordinator for critical infrastructure security and
resilience, CISA will play a key role in addressing and managing risks at the
nexus of AI, cybersecurity, and critical infrastructure.

Taking a significant step forward in addressing the intersection of artificial
intelligence (AI) and cybersecurity, CISA and the United Kingdom’s National
Cyber Security Centre (NCSC(link is external)) jointly released Guidelines for
Secure AI System Development(link is external), developed in cooperation with 21
other agencies and ministries from across the world – including all members of
the Group of 7 major industrial economies on November 27. The Guidelines for
Secure AI System Developmentare the first of their kind to be agreed to
globally. They will help developers of any systems that use AI make informed
cybersecurity decisions at every stage of the development process.


CISA’S ROADMAP FOR ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

CISA has developed a Roadmap for Artificial Intelligence, which is a
whole-of-agency plan aligned with national AI strategy, to address our efforts
to: promote the beneficial uses of AI to enhance cybersecurity capabilities,
ensure AI systems are protected from cyber-based threats, and deter the
malicious use of AI capabilities to threaten the critical infrastructure
Americans rely on every day.

CISA will implement the Roadmap through five lines of effort:

Line of Effort 1: Responsibly use AI to support our mission

CISA will use AI-enabled software tools to strengthen cyber defense and support
its critical infrastructure mission. CISA’s adoption of AI will ensure
responsible, ethical, and safe use—consistent with the Constitution and all
applicable laws and policies, including those addressing federal procurement,
privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties.

Line of Effort 2: Assure AI systems

CISA will assess and assist secure by design, AI-based software adoption across
a diverse array of stakeholders, including federal civilian government agencies;
private sector companies; and state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT)
governments through the development of best practices and guidance for secure
and resilient AI software development and implementation.

Line of Effort 3: Protect critical infrastructure from malicious use of AI

CISA will assess and recommend mitigation of AI threats facing our nation’s
critical infrastructure in partnership with other government agencies and
industry partners that develop, test, and evaluate AI tools.

Read more
Line of Effort 4: Collaborate and communicate on key AI efforts with the
interagency, international partners, and the public

CISA will contribute to DHS-led and interagency processes on AI-enabled
software. This LOE includes developing policy approaches for the U.S.
government’s overall national strategy on AI and supporting a whole-of-DHS
approach on AI-based-software policy issues. This LOE also includes coordinating
with international partners to advance global AI security best practices and
principles.

Read more
Line of Effort 5: Expand AI expertise in our workforce

CISA will continue to educate our workforce on AI software systems and
techniques, and the agency will continue to actively recruit interns, fellows,
and future employees with AI expertise. CISA will ensure that internal training
reflects—and new recruits understand—the legal, ethical, and policy aspects of
AI-based software systems in addition to the technical aspects.

SOFTWARE MUST BE SECURE BY DESIGN, AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS NO EXCEPTION

Like any software system, AI must be Secure by Design. Manufacturers of AI
systems must prioritize security throughout the whole lifecycle of the product.
