Executive Perspective: Why Securing Your Data is the Key to Winning with AI

Aug 20, 2025 |

As CXOs, we’re all focused on leveraging AI to drive efficiency, innovation, and competitive advantage. The conversation often starts with infrastructure (GPUs, LLMs, and copilots), but let’s be clear: AI doesn’t run on GPUs. It runs on data. And if our data isn’t secure, nothing else matters. Unsecured and unclassified data undermines trust, exposes us to risk, and jeopardizes the very AI strategies we’re betting our futures on.

It is also vital for risk management, regulatory compliance (e.g., BCBS 239, Basel III, AML/KYC), and avoiding fines and reputational damage. “Fit for Business Use” data also supports customer retention, personalized services, and improved revenue stability. Data-savvy CFOs leverage insights for long-term growth.
