AI is a brilliant tool—when balanced with security and people-first values

AI needs to be managed carefully

Without careful management, immature AI security controls will cause you problems. Behind every ‘friendly’ AI bot or tool is a third-party provider making choices about how to protect—or neglect—the privacy of your data and team.

 

For example, in mid-2025 researchers discovered a well-known global fast-food franchise had their recruitment data and chat histories unknowingly exposed through a series of security failures by one of their third-party providers. Issues ranged from unchanged default credentials and inactive accounts left open for years, to missing access controls and weak monitoring.

 

The lesson: To profit from the amazing opportunities AI offers, security and people-first values must be and remain a priority focus of your IT team.

How to Successfully Implement Your AI Tools

A successful AI journey starts with understanding what your organisation already has—your systems, data, access controls and culture—and identifying any ‘hidden’ AI use. These insights help you make informed decisions about risk and compliance, and determine what internal resources, governance and security protocols are needed to promote productive, safe use of AI.

 

itro’s phased AI Readiness Assessment, developed by our senior engineers, offers a clear and practical evaluation of how prepared your organisation is to adopt AI safely and effectively.

 

We work with you and your key stakeholders to assess AI goals against existing capabilities, risk profile, and business maturity. Then you receive our AI Readiness Report covering strategy, data, technology, people, governance, and policy with our recommended roadmap for successful implementation.
