Protegrity and GIOS Technology Partner to Help Regulated Enterprises Move AI From Pilot to Production Safely
Protegrity, a global leader in data and AI security and privacy, today announced a partnership with GIOS Technology to help regulated enterprises adopt AI while maintaining stronger control over sensitive data.
AI projects often stall when teams cannot get safe access to the data they need. Security teams restrict access to reduce exposure. Data and AI teams need broader context to produce useful results. Governance teams need evidence that sensitive data remains protected across systems, regions, and workflows.
The partnership brings together Protegrity’s data-centric protection and AI security capabilities with GIOS Technology’s advisory, cloud, data, and transformation expertise. Together, Protegrity and GIOS Technology will help customers build AI workflows that keep sensitive data protected, usable, and governed across complex enterprise environments.
For customers, the value is practical. Protegrity helps protect sensitive data at the data layer, so it can remain usable for analytics and AI while reducing exposure. GIOS helps organisations apply those capabilities across the environments where AI work happens, including hybrid cloud, multi-cloud, analytics, and enterprise data platforms.
This combination addresses a growing challenge for regulated organisations: AI cannot scale through one-off approvals, manual controls, or data access exceptions. Each new use case raises questions about which data can be used, where it can move, who can access it, how it is protected, and how that protection can be proven.
Through the partnership, Protegrity and GIOS Technology will focus on secure AI workflows, sovereign data governance, and protected analytics. The partnership will explore practical issues including cross-border data use, and safe access to sensitive data for AI and analytics.
“Enterprise AI is not being held back by a lack of ambition. It is being held back by the challenge of using sensitive data safely,” said Chris Gaebler, CMO of Protegrity. “Together with GIOS Technology, we are helping customers close that gap. Protegrity provides AI security and knowledge protection, while GIOS brings the advisory and implementation expertise to make it work across complex enterprise environments. That gives organisations a more practical path from AI experimentation to production.”
“Many organisations know where they want to go with AI, but they need help turning governance, security, and data protection requirements into working operating models,” said Stephen Masefield, CRO at GIOS Technology. “Our partnership with Protegrity helps customers apply data protection in the environments where AI actually runs – across cloud platforms, analytics workflows, and enterprise systems. The result is a more practical route to AI adoption in regulated settings.”
By combining AI security with transformation and implementation expertise, Protegrity and GIOS Technology help customers move beyond AI experimentation and build governed, repeatable patterns for secure AI adoption.
