AI Compliance

AI Security and Compliance in Legal

In the fast-evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI), the challenges of trust, control, and security have become critical barriers to achieving widespread adoption. Chief Technical Officers at large legal companies are acutely aware of the need to navigate the complexities of AI projects while ensuring reliability, efficiency, and control. Trustwise recognizes this imperative and delivers an AI Security and Control Layer, including AI Trust Management for Agentic AI Systems, to address these challenges head-on.

The Trust Gap

Modern AI projects often encounter scalability issues not because of a lack of ambition, but due to the Trust Gap, characterized by unreliability, inefficiency, and lack of control. The emergence of agentic AI systems only widens this gap, introducing greater complexity and risk. Trustwise’s solutions, embodied in Harmony Ai, are designed to minimize the Trust Gap throughout the entire AI lifecycle, from simulation and verification to optimization and governance.

Types of PII (Personally Identifiable Information)

1. Sensitive Personal Information

– Refers to data elements such as social security numbers, financial account information, and biometric data that can uniquely identify an individual and are highly sensitive in nature.

– Legislation such as GDPR and CCPA impose strict regulations on the collection, processing, and storage of sensitive personal information, requiring organizations to implement robust security measures.

2. Demographic Information

– Includes details such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, and marital status that may not individually identify a person but can be used in combination to discern an individual’s identity or characteristics.

– Protection of demographic information is crucial to avoid potential discriminatory practices or breaches of privacy.

3. Healthcare Data

– Encompasses medical history, treatment records, insurance information, and other health-related data that is highly sensitive and subject to stringent privacy regulations such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

– Effective security measures are essential to safeguard healthcare data from unauthorized access or malicious activities.

4. Financial Information

– Comprises banking details, credit card numbers, income records, and investment portfolios, requiring strong protection to prevent fraudulent activities and identity theft.

Compliance with regulations like the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) is crucial for maintaining the security and privacy of financial information.

5. Online Identifiers

– Includes IP addresses, device identifiers, cookies, and other digital markers that can be used to track and identify individuals across online platforms.

– Robust measures are needed to protect online identifiers from unauthorized tracking, profiling, and exploitation.
