Rethinking AI Security: Why CASB and DLP Need an Interaction-Aware Layer

Organizations struggle to protect sensitive data when employees use AI tools because traditional security tools like CASB (cloud access security brokers, which control who can access cloud applications) and DLP (data loss prevention, which blocks sensitive information from leaving an organization) focus on whether users can access an app, not on what they actually say to the AI or what it does with that information. The real risk appears in the conversation itself, where users might accidentally share confidential details across multiple prompts in ways that don't match standard security rules.
