BBVA y Santander colaborarán con Nvidia en seguridad para agentes de IA

BBVA and Banco Santander are teaming up with Nvidia to focus on security for artificial intelligence agents, according to the technology giant's announcement on Wednesday. The project, called Openshell Reference Architecture, aims to create, contain, and observe secure AI agents within critical systems and enterprise infrastructures.

The banking entities join the initiative to investigate how this architecture can strengthen the governance and security of AI agents. Other cybersecurity companies, including 1Password, Check Point, Crowdstrike, Cisco, F5, Fortinet, Microsoft, Okta, Palo Alto Networks, TrendAI, and Zscaler, are also integrating the architecture into their cybersecurity solutions.

Additionally, firms like Cadence, Dassault, IBM, SAP, Siemens, and Synopsys are developing platforms for agents.

BBVA's collaboration with Nvidia presents an opportunity to explore new approaches to enhance security and governance from the design of AI agents within its industrialization strategy, reported the bank. Through this partnership, BBVA aims to enforce these limits during the operation of AI agents, aiming to improve client experience and employee productivity without losing control, stated Aser Blanco, Nvidia's global lead for the banking sector.
