About the Webinar
AI is becoming part of everyday work across government agencies, education, and commercial organizations. Employees are using AI to analyze information, automate repetitive work, create content, and get more done. But much of this adoption can happen outside approved IT and security controls.
This growing trend, known as Shadow AI, can leave organizations with limited visibility into the tools employees use and how sensitive information moves through them. It can also create new challenges around security, compliance, permissions, and accountability.
The goal is not to slow innovation, but to create the right guardrails for responsible AI adoption.
Join BuzzClan and Atlassian for a practical discussion on moving from AI exposure to AI empowerment. Hosted by Carahsoft, the webinar gives organizations a simple way to register and join the conversation.
You will learn how a governed, auditable approach to AI can help agencies support innovation without creating unnecessary risk. Expect a practical discussion focused on the real challenges facing IT leaders, compliance teams, and digital transformation leaders today.
