2:40 PM - 3:40 PM | Plenary Session - The AI Risk You Don’t See Coming: Protecting Your Company From Its Own Data
As AI tools become embedded in everyday business operations, many organizations are unintentionally exposing sensitive company data, often without clear visibility into how that data is used, shared or retained. In-house legal teams face growing pressure to keep pace with rapidly evolving AI adoption while managing privacy, confidentiality, and ethical obligations alongside already demanding workloads. This session explores the critical need to safeguard your organization against hidden data and privacy risks, address gaps in vendor transparency, and understand regulatory expectations that can lead to significant legal and operational consequences if overlooked. Attendees will gain practical guidance on policies, governance and best practices to responsibly manage AI use before irreversible problems arise.
