AIFT , the global cybersecurity and insurance technology company, is collaborating with the Center of Excellence in Information Assurance CoEIA at King Saud University of Saudi Arabia to advance safe and responsible GenAI adoption. The partners announced the collaboration on the sidelines of the Future Investment Initiative FII summit in Riyadh.
AIFT, through its GenAI security arm Vulcan, offers market leading GenAI security, safety and compliance tools, with unique capabilities in Middle Eastern and Asian languages. CoEIA, led by Doctor Jalal Almuhtadi, is King Saud University's non-profit center for developing and providing cybersecurity solutions. AIFT and CoEIA will work together to address regional and global challenges in GenAI and LLM governance and safety. In particular, they intend to collaborate on applied research in cybersecurity and moderation for Arabic language GenAI models and tools, considering not just linguistic requirements but also cultural sensitivities.
Earlier this year, AIFT appointed Professor Muhammad Khurram Khan of King Saud University, one of the founding members of CoEIA, to its International Advisory Board. Professor Khan is a global thought leader and influencer in cybersecurity. His pioneering work over the past 25 years has played a defining role in advancing cybersecurity research, innovation, education, and digital policy in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and beyond.
