“If you are struggling to navigate the choppy waters of AI security, compliance, and privacy, I highly recommend working with Walter and the StackAware team.”

Asking these questions?
01.
Embrace AI or get left behind
Organizations rarely survive if they do not embrace new technology.And when it comes to AI, not leveraging it means losing to competitors.So buckle up.
02.
There are risks
Major companies appear to have lost control of their intellectual property using AI tools.Some countries have outright banned apps like ChatGPT due to privacy concerns.Regulators across the globe are scrambling to establish relevant governance frameworks.
03.
Have a plan.
The tried and true concepts of data confidentiality, integrity, and availability remain relevant. Protecting these things should remain priority #1 of cybersecurity teams.On the privacy side, there remains gray area when it comes to the law, but there are practices you can implement to reduce your risk regardless of what regulators decide.When dealing with other frameworks, being able to confidently explain to auditors what you are doing and why will be crucial. Especially when these folks aren’t even sure how AI-enabled operations should look.
“Walter immediately spotted the key issues related to AI and cybersecurity risk. With his help, we were able to rapidly identify - and mitigate - key compliance challenges related to AI tool deployment.”

The StackAware assessment was extremely thorough while at the same time offering practical, realistic suggestions for how to manage artificial intelligence-related security, compliance, and privacy risks.

Walter Haydock
FOUNDER and CEO
Prior to launching my StackAware, I:- Protected the sensitive data of Fortune 500 customers like Nike, Autodesk, and Corning while I was a director of product management at Privacera, an Accel-backed data governance startup.
- Led cybersecurity and compliance for Internet of Things (IoT) product lines at PTC, supporting enterprises like Caterpillar, Volvo, and Flowserve.
- Graduated from Harvard Business School’s MBA program.
- Oversaw federal data management programs at the Department of Homeland Security while serving as a congressional staffer.
- Led Marines in combat as a reconnaissance and intelligence officer.I went out on my own after seeing companies spend huge amounts of money on fancy software tools while missing obvious risks because of poor management and governance processes.The explosion in AI over the past year or so means the attack surface is growing rapidly. And I knew that I had the tools to help tech companies with regulated customer bases deal with this problem without slowing down business.
