Xage Security has expanded its Critical Asset Protection solution beyond industrial environments to secure modern digital assets, including business applications, cloud workloads, AI systems, infrastructure, and connected services. The move reflects the growing need for proactive security as AI accelerates both cyberattacks and enterprise adoption of dynamic digital assets.

Xage Security has announced the expansion of its Critical Asset Protection solution to cover a broader range of enterprise digital assets, including AI systems, business applications, cloud services, workloads, and critical infrastructure.
The company says organizations face increasing pressure as attackers leverage artificial intelligence to identify vulnerabilities, automate reconnaissance, and accelerate exploit development faster than traditional security practices can respond.
According to Xage, the growing use of AI by both enterprises and cybercriminals has significantly changed how organizations must approach cybersecurity.
As businesses continue deploying AI agents, cloud-native workloads, connected infrastructure, and digital services, the number of assets requiring protection continues to increase. At the same time, AI enables attackers to discover vulnerabilities and launch attacks more rapidly, reducing the effectiveness of patching and traditional detection-based defenses.
Rather than relying primarily on vulnerability patching or threat detection, Xage focuses on reducing attack exposure before exploitation occurs.
The expanded Critical Asset Protection platform hides critical assets from unauthorized discovery, brokers every connection, and allows communication only between explicitly authorized identities, actions, and approved communication paths.
The solution combines identity-based access control with microsegmentation to protect interactions between users, applications, workloads, AI systems, and infrastructure without requiring organizations to redesign their existing networks.
Modern enterprise environments often include cloud workloads and AI resources that are continuously created, moved, scaled, or retired.
To address these changing environments, Xage applies just-in-time connectivity and dynamic policy enforcement, allowing organizations to adapt security controls as identities, assets, and access requirements evolve.
The expanded platform enables organizations to:
Xage also highlighted the growing importance of protecting legitimate AI systems from attacks orchestrated by malicious AI tools, describing the emerging challenge as "AI-on-AI violence."
“Organizations need to assume that any asset could contain an exploitable weakness and prevent attackers from reaching or interacting with it in unauthorized ways,” said Duncan Greatwood, CEO at Xage Security. “The security industry has spent decades trying to eliminate vulnerabilities faster than adversaries can exploit them. AI makes that race increasingly unwinnable. The next era of cybersecurity will be defined by controlling exposure. That means governing every interaction with and between assets, so that a vulnerability does not automatically become a path to compromise.”
By extending Critical Asset Protection beyond industrial systems, Xage aims to help organizations strengthen Zero Trust security across increasingly complex AI-powered enterprise environments.
