THE AI DATA RISK

The Biggest AI Security Risk is Data Exposure

AI can reach, use, and expose sensitive data faster than security teams can respond.

Sensitive data everywhere

Sensitive Data Flows Into AI

Employees can upload prompts, files, screenshots, and business data into GenAI tools, including unsanctioned shadow AI.

Approved AI Can Overreach

Copilots and agents can inherit broad access, retrieve sensitive data, and assemble context no single user was meant to see.

Policies Are Hard to Enforce

AI governance policies only work if teams know what data AI is using, whose data it is, and whether that use should be allowed or blocked.

WHAT WE DO

AI Guardrails Powered by Data Intelligence

We connect sensitive data to identity, access, and business context so AI can use the right data safely.

AI risk starts with the data it can reach.

Lightbeam maps sensitive data to identity, purpose, and risk, then enforces guardrails for AI use.

  • . Block unauthorized AI use

"Lightbeam is an excellent data privacy automation platform I've used for a few months. What I like best is its ability to help me automate privacy compliance and security tasks, and provide a 360-degree view of sensitive data sprawl. The platform's user interface is also easy to use and navigate, even for someone who's not very tech-savvy like myself."
