Risks of AI tools in business and how to manage them

AI tools have found their way into most businesses whether IT signed off on them or not.

Someone in marketing is using ChatGPT to draft copy, someone in finance is feeding numbers into a chatbot to summarise a report, and someone in HR is using an AI note-taker on interview calls.

Most of it happens quietly, with good intentions, and without anyone checking what happens to the data afterwards.

Banning AI tools outright rarely works as staff either find a workaround or stop being honest about what they're using. The better approach for any UK business is understanding where the real risks of AI sit and making sure your business is protected.

Data is critical to the day-to-day operation of most businesses. If that data is not secure and protected, the business is vulnerable.

Oxfordshire-based msolv required a reliable solution to safeguard its information and prevent any potential data loss.

msolv is a UK company with a rich history of laser materials processing and inkjet materials deposition. msolv now focuses on the semiconductor packaging market, providing equipment and processes for large-area electronics, such as sensors and solar energy. It is part of the Hong Kong based CN-Innovations group.

The custom-engineering firm partnered with OX IT Solutions and Proximitum to enhance their storage, network and protection.
