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.
