SPEAKING TOPIC: Safeguarding Data Privacy and protecting IP in the Age of AI

Artificial intelligence holds great promise for advancing business, but also poses emerging threats if intellectual property and private data inadvertently leak into models. In this presentation, we'll explore how and why companies must implement rigorous controls like encryption, access management, and monitoring at the content layer (vs. network and application layers) to ensure sensitive data doesn't leak into AI systems. We'll also examine how there will be a resurgence of DRM (Digital Rights Management) within organizational tech and security stacks as an approach to protecting unstructured data from AI ingestion.
