As organizations accelerate AI adoption, maintaining control over sensitive data is becoming increasingly complex. Data is no longer accessed only by employees and external partners, but also by applications, automated systems, and AI agents operating at unprecedented speed and scale.

The critical question is: do you still know who and what can access your sensitive data, where that data is processed, how it is shared, and whether every interaction complies with your policies and regulatory obligations?

At the same time, the EU AI Act, DORA, NIS2, and evolving digital sovereignty requirements are increasing expectations around access governance, data residency, accountability, operational resilience, and audit readiness. Policies and traditional access controls alone are no longer enough. Organizations must be able to demonstrate that sensitive data remains protected and under control throughout its lifecycle.

This discussion explores how organizations can enforce governance at the data layer, ensuring every interaction is authorized, secure, compliant, and fully auditable—whether sensitive data is accessed by a human, a business system, or an AI agent.

The result: the ability to accelerate AI adoption and digital transformation while maintaining control, meeting regulatory requirements, and protecting your organization’s most valuable information.
