- Thales surveyed more than 3,000 IT experts about generic AI
- Researchers faced a lot of concern about safety
- Despite concerns, business adoptions are accelerating
Despite seeing this as a major innovation driver, business is highly concerned about the safety threats of artificial intelligence (AI). According to it 2025 Thales Data Danger ReportThe company’s annual report on the latest data security threats, trends and emerging subjects.
Based on a survey of over 3,100 IT and security professionals in 20 countries and 15 industries, Thales report found that approximately 70% of organizations see the rapid progress of AI as their biggest security risk. Generative AI, which can make text and drawing from simple text signs, is a special concern.
In these ideas, issues of deep drilling, integrity and credibility emerge as major challenges. About two-thirds (64%) of the respondents worry about the lack of integrity of AI, while 57% cited ‘reliability’ as a major challenge. In addition, since various Genai functions such as training, estimates, or material production, the user depend on the data provided by the user, the respondents expressed their concern about the increase in contact with data safety risks.

Despite these concerns, the organizations are still accelerating their AI adoption, the report further states, indicating that it puts them in unnecessary risk. In fact, a third of businesses are integrated into operations despite not actively ensuring complete safety of their system. Spending on Genai has become one of the major preferences for organizations, the other for cloud protection only.
Eric Hansalman, chief analyst of S&P Global Market Intelligence 451 Research, said, “The rapidly developed genenai landscape is pressurizing enterprises to move forward quickly, sometimes at the cost of caution, because they run to stay ahead of the adoption curve.” “Many enterprises are rapidly deployed by Genai, as they can fully understand their application architecture, adding complexity and layers of risk by rapid spread of mother -in -law equipment.”
About three-fourths (73%) professionals reported to invest in AI-specific safety equipment with new or existing budgets, concluding the report of Thales.
