Glean builds an AI-powered search and knowledge assistant that helps employees find information across all of a company’s apps and data. Its core product is an enterprise search tool that understands natural language queries and retrieves relevant results from documents, conversations, tickets, and other sources, plus a chat assistant that can summarize and answer questions using that same information. The system uses deep learning language models that adapt to a company’s own terminology and context, improving relevance without manual tuning, and it offers hosting options to align with security and data policies. Compared with competitors, Glean focuses on cross-application search, organization-specific language learning, and a combined search-and-chat experience that delivers direct answers and summaries from internal knowledge sources. Its goal is to help teams work faster by turning scattered information into easily accessible answers, reducing time spent searching.

Securing AI as Enterprises move beyond experimentation.

Securing AI as Enterprises move beyond experimentation. Glean's Sunil Agrawal and Palo Alto's Michael Sikorski on AI Deployment Risks Tom Field (SecurityEditor) - March 27, 2026 Enterprises moving from artificial intelligence experimentation to broad deployment face a familiar and preventable failure: treating security as an afterthought. As AI agents proliferate across business workflows, gaps in identity management, data governance and runtime monitoring are creating new attack surfaces, attackers are exploiting them. "There's a whole new slew of attack vectors that are coming up: prompt injection, jailbreaking, data poisoning. All those terms didn't exist before generative AI," said Sunil Agrawal, CISO at Glean. "People moved to the cloud. They didn't think through security in the right way. And then it became really difficult and challenging, and we're still dealing with that. And now, all of a sudden, AI is on top of it," said Michael Sikorski, CTO and vice president of engineering at Palo Alto Network's Unit 42. In this video interview with Information Security Media Group at RSAC Conference 2026, Agrawal and Sikorski also discussed: * Why identity management and declared guardrails are foundational to safe agent deployment; * How the Glean and Palo Alto Networks integration enforces least-privilege data access, runtime security and incident response readiness; * Resources for security threat modeling, including the AWARE framework and Unit 42's latest incident response report. Agrawal is responsible for the overall security of Glean's products, infrastructure and corporate environment. With more than 20 years of experience, he has held security leadership roles at Bolt, Nutanix, Netflix and Adobe. Sikorski leads the engineering, product and threat intelligence teams at Palo Alto Networks' Unit 42. He has more than 25 years of cybersecurity experience, most of which involved responding to high-profile incidents and leading high-performing teams.

Udemy launches Glean Integration to power AI-based workplace upskilling

Udemy launches Glean integration to power ai-based workplace upskilling. Udemy has announced a strategic partnership with work AI leader, Glean. This new integration delivers adaptive, AI-powered learning in the flow of work through agents, connecting real-time work context with skills development to offer a powerful alternative to traditional learning management system (LMS) solutions in an increasingly competitive market. Today, enterprises are rapidly deploying AI-enabled systems and workflows but may struggle with workforce adoption and effective utilization. The Udemy-Glean integration closes that gap by bringing learning directly to the flow of work where decisions are made, tasks are executed, and performance improvement can be measured. By leveraging the Udemy MCP Server, organizations can automatically surface role-aligned Udemy Business content inside AI agents, workflows, and enterprise search experiences. Glean can then layer on additional contextual data, like related trainings, internal documentation, and other resources, alongside Udemy content like curated skills development, hands-on labs, and practice simulations to help users learn more effectively. The integration can accelerate skills readiness while reducing reliance on traditional LMS workflows that typically disconnect learning and application. "This partnership represents Udemy's shift from content delivery to orchestrating learning that helps individuals unlock their full potential in an AI-driven workplace," said Hugo Sarrazin, President and CEO at Udemy. "We're empowering our customers with a smarter, simpler way to upskill their teams while saving time, reducing costs, and eliminating the complexity of legacy learning systems. The integration empowers our customers to maximize their AI investments while maintaining human oversight and strategic direction." The partnership addresses three challenges: Disconnected skills development: Rather than assigning training and leaving application to chance, organizations can trigger relevant learning as skills gaps emerge in real-time, dramatically reducing time-to-competency and driving adoption. Tool underutilization: When employees struggle to use AI workflows, prompting, or automation, the integration provides just-in-time coaching to apply learning instantly and effectively. Delayed digital transformation: By detecting usage friction and delivering contextual learning, teams learn to automate tasks, prompt AI effectively, and interpret outputs - ensuring high-cost AI tools deliver real ROI. "By integrating Udemy's curated skills content with Glean's AI platform, we're co-creating contextual, AI-powered learning experiences that deliver the right content at the exact moment employees need it," said Arvind Jain, CEO at Glean. "Whether onboarding, problem-solving, or developing new skills, employees will be able to access relevant Udemy courses and AI-powered learning experiences tailored to each employee's role, making continuous learning as seamless as finding a document or joining a meeting." The Udemy-Glean integration is available to joint enterprise customers. Organizations can deploy pre-built learning agents for common use cases such as onboarding and upskilling, or create custom agents that combine more than 30,000 curated Udemy Business courses with internal documentation, tools, and workflows.
