Secure, Compliant, and Cost-Effective: The AI Platform Your CIO Will Actually Approve

Introduction: The CIO’s Dilemma

Every week, new AI tools pop up. Employees experiment enthusiastically, but CIOs are stuck asking:

• Is this secure?
• Is it compliant with DSGVO and EU AI Act?
• What will this cost us in the long run?

Without a solution, AI risks turning into shadow IT chaos.

The Compliance Imperative

Regulation is no longer optional. With the EU AI Act around the corner, Mittelstand companies need to ensure:

• Data protection: no sensitive data leaking into US-based black boxes.
• Accountability: clear governance and reporting.
• Security: infrastructure that meets German and European.

CIOs and CFOs are right to be cautious. The wrong choice today could mean big risks tomorrow.

Why Tool Sprawl is a Trap

If every department subscribes to its own tools, you end up with:

• High, unpredictable costs.
• No central oversight.
• Security risks everywhere.

Instead, companies need a controlled, central foundation.
