Using AI Securely

 

Leverage the Power of AI While Mitigating Risk

 

AI Brings Opportunities, But Also Risks to Manage

Artificial intelligence (AI) tools like the large language models (LLMs) ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini are rapidly becoming part of the modern workplace, helping to automate tasks, facilitate decision-making and generate valuable insights at scale. At the same time, products such as Microsoft’s Copilot and Zoom’s AI features are seamlessly integrated into organizations through existing platforms, embedding AI into business processes with little to no friction.

 

The rapid adoption of AI is part of a larger AI revolution transforming how businesses operate, but it also brings significant risks. Clear leadership guidance is crucial to prevent the unintentional exposure of sensitive data or exploitation of vulnerabilities.

 

For organizations using LLM tools or built-in AI capabilities in their products, AI security risks are often overlooked. Organizations may also have non-specific or inconsistent AI policies, while some impose blanket bans that drive the use of unsanctioned tools, facilitating the growth of “shadow AI.”

Employees must know their role in protecting the business from threat actors leveraging vulnerabilities in third-party AI models as an unprotected door into an organization.
