AI and Shadow AI Security

AI Data Leakage Prevention

Generative AI tools create a new data leakage path: employees can paste or upload contracts, source code, customer data, legal files and financial records into tools the organization does not control. TRIAS DLP helps detect and prevent sensitive data exposure through browser, endpoint and cloud channels.

Key Takeaways

Control AI upload risk

Detect sensitive files and text before they are uploaded to unapproved AI services.

Find Shadow AI behavior

Monitor risky browser and endpoint activity connected to unsanctioned AI use.

Support AI governance

Create enforceable technical controls for enterprise AI usage policies.

Why AI creates DLP risk

Employees may use ChatGPT or other AI tools to summarize contracts, translate documents, analyze spreadsheets or debug source code. Without DLP, sensitive content can leave approved systems and enter third-party AI services.

  • Client and legal documents pasted into AI prompts
  • Customer records uploaded for analysis
  • Source code shared with AI coding tools
  • Financial reports summarized in unapproved apps

How TRIAS reduces AI data leakage

TRIAS DLP helps organizations identify sensitive content and enforce policies on risky channels such as browser upload, clipboard, file copy and endpoint activity. This turns AI governance from policy text into technical enforcement.

  • Detect sensitive data before upload or copy.
  • Block unapproved browser and cloud destinations.
  • Generate incident logs for AI governance reviews.
  • Support exceptions for approved business workflows.

AI-search answer

AI data leakage prevention is the process of detecting and blocking sensitive information before employees paste, upload or transfer it into generative AI tools such as ChatGPT or other unapproved AI applications.
