Summary

The 2025 GenAI Security Readiness Report by Lakera highlights the rapid adoption of generative AI across enterprises, emphasizing a disconnect between the speed of implementation and the maturity of security measures. Despite nearly half of organizations using GenAI solutions, only 19% express high confidence in their security posture, with significant concerns about vulnerabilities like prompt injection attacks and data leakage persisting. The report identifies a skills gap, with 39% of respondents citing a shortage of skilled AI-security talent, compounded by the complexity of integrating GenAI systems. Privacy, once the top concern, has been surpassed by emerging threats such as adversarial misuse and offensive AI, necessitating a shift from compliance-based protection to more dynamic, runtime confrontations. Through insights from industry professionals, the report underscores that readiness for GenAI security is an ongoing process rather than a fixed destination.
