Large enterprise / AI governance
A large enterprise faced compliance risk from unmanaged AI use. IO delivered an AI Readiness Assessment and AI Foundation Implementation: discovering desktop and browser AI activity, assessing prompt and data exposure, establishing a governed data foundation, and implementing approved Microsoft Copilot with Microsoft Purview guardrails. We also introduced blocking controls for unapproved AI services and ongoing Shadow AI monitoring within the managed environment.
Featured enterprise engagement
The challenge
A large enterprise faced growing compliance concerns as employees adopted AI tools without consistent organizational controls. Leadership needed to understand which services were in use, what information employees were sharing, and how to enable an approved AI platform with appropriate data protection and ongoing oversight.
01 / AI Readiness Assessment
IO investigated desktop and browser AI activity across the assessed environment, identified the applications and models in use, and evaluated the types of prompts and data employees were submitting. The assessment established a clearer picture of exposure and priorities for remediation.
02 / AI Foundation Implementation
We established a governed data foundation and its supporting controls before enabling the approved AI deployment. This work aligned the data layer, access boundaries, and governance requirements to support controlled use of organizational information.
03 / Approved Copilot deployment
IO implemented the company-approved Microsoft Copilot environment with compliance and data-protection guardrails supported by Microsoft Purview, giving employees an approved path for AI use within the organization’s governance requirements.
04 / Enforcement & ongoing oversight
We implemented blocking and access restrictions for unapproved AI services within the managed environment and established ongoing Shadow AI monitoring to identify emerging unauthorized use.
The outcome
The client moved from unmanaged adoption to an approved operating model: clearer visibility into AI activity, a controlled data foundation, Copilot with Purview-supported guardrails, and continuing oversight of unauthorized AI use.
