Governing AI in the Public Sector: Managing Shadow AI, Collaboration Risks and Data Security

As generative AI becomes part of everyday work, state and local agencies must balance innovation with responsible governance. Employees are increasingly using AI-powered collaboration and productivity tools — sometimes outside approved channels — creating new risks for sensitive data and public trust.

Join GovTech and Proofpoint to explore practical strategies for governing AI while enabling employees to work more effectively. In this live session, our speakers will cover:

• Building an AI governance strategy that supports innovation and security.
• Identifying and reducing risks from shadow AI and unsanctioned tools.
• Strengthening protections against insider-driven data loss.
• Establishing guardrails for secure AI-enabled collaboration.

Whether you're developing your first AI governance framework or strengthening existing controls, you'll leave with actionable insights for enabling AI securely across your organization. Join us to receive a complimentary certificate of attendance!
