Belgian AI company ML6 and American technology giant Cisco are partnering to help organizations secure AI applications and prepare for the EU AI Act.
ML6 and Cisco are entering into a partnership to improve AI security. As part of this, ML6 is joining Cisco’s AI Defense Design Partner Program. The Belgian company is one of the first European partners in the program.
The collaboration between Cisco and ML6 focuses on accelerating secure AI innovations in Europe. Both companies aim to support organizations in implementing robust security measures for AI applications, both in the cloud and on-premises. This is particularly relevant as the EU AI Act introduces significant new provisions in August 2026.
