An Evening with Steven Fox, Director, IS & Regulatory Compliance
According to a 2025 BigID AI Risk & Readiness in the Enterprise Report, 64% of companies lack visibility into their AI risks. AI introduces a fundamentally different risk model—one that is dynamic, data-dependent, and capable of changing behavior far faster than traditional control frameworks were designed to handle. In this discussion, leaders will explore why effective AI risk management starts not with tools, but with clarity of purpose: understanding why AI is being adopted, how it strengthens competitive advantage, and where it introduces new forms of operational, legal, and data risk. Examine how organizations are integrating data governance, legal oversight, and daily operational controls to manage AI responsibly, while avoiding the costly trap of “random AI” experimentation. The session will emphasize practical lessons learned, including how to build AI strategies that extend existing strengths rather than dilute focus or investment
