Live Webinar:

Shadow AI on Mobile: The Enterprise Risk Irish Organisations Are Underestimating

Thursday 19th November | 11am

Your staff are already using AI on their phones. Can you see it?

Somewhere in your organisation today, an employee is pasting client information into an AI app on their phone, with no idea where that data ends up. Shadow AI has become one of the most underestimated risks facing Irish organisations, and much of it lives on the same mobile devices staff use for company email and customer records, usually without IT’s knowledge. A single prompt or upload is enough for sensitive information to leave the organisation without a trace.

The pressure to get this under control is building from several directions at once. NIS2 puts accountability for cyber risk with management boards, and customers, insurers and supply chain partners are already asking how AI use and mobile risk are governed. The EU AI Act expects organisations to know which AI tools are in use, and personal data typed into an unapproved app quickly becomes a GDPR issue too.

Join us on Thursday 19th November at 11am, when Michael Simpson, Senior Sales Engineer at Lookout, will show how Shadow AI takes hold on mobile devices, what it exposes across the mobile attack surface, and the practical steps organisations can take to see which AI tools are in use, put sensible governance in place and protect the data at risk. You will leave with a clear picture of where Shadow AI is likely to be hiding in your own environment and a practical starting point for bringing it under control.

Whether you lead IT or security in an Irish organisation and want to get ahead of AI and NIS2 requirements, or you are an MSP or reseller whose customers are starting to ask how to manage AI across their mobile workforce, this session will give you insight you can act on straight away.

Key Takeaways:

In this session you will learn:

  • How Shadow AI takes hold on mobile devices and why it rarely shows up in existing security reporting
  • What unapproved AI apps expose across the mobile attack surface, from client data to credentials
  • How to see which AI tools are in use across managed and personal devices
  • How to put sensible governance in place that protects data without holding back productivity
  • How to evidence control of AI use for NIS2, the EU AI Act, GDPR and the questions coming from customers and insurers
