Gartner predicts that over 40% of AI-related data breaches by 2027 will stem from the improper use of generative AI (GenAI) across borders. The rapid adoption of GenAI has outpaced data governance and security measures, raising concerns about data localisation due to centralized computing power. Gartner advises organisations to enhance data governance, establish governance committees, strengthen data security, and invest in Trust, Risk, and Security Management (TRiSM) products to mitigate these risks and ensure compliance.
By 2027, more than 40% of AI-related data breaches will be caused by the improper use of generative AI across borders, according to Gartner.
“Organisations are noticing changes in the content produced by employees using GenAI tools. While these tools can be used for approved business applications, they pose security risks if sensitive prompts are sent to AI tools and APIs hosted in unknown locations.” “This need will likely drive growth in AI security, governance, and compliance services markets, as well as technology solutions that enhance transparency and control over AI processes.”
To mitigate the risks of AI data breaches, particularly from cross-border GenAI misuse, and to ensure compliance, Gartner recommends several strategic actions for enterprises:
