AI is a force multiplier for both productivity and risk. As organizations race to adopt AI under growing security and compliance pressure, the hard part isn’t getting access to the technology; it’s using it safely.

In practice, AI amplifies how your information is handled today. If data is overexposed, AI can scale that risk instantly. If your fundamentals are strong, AI becomes a real advantage.

At the same time, we’re seeing a rush across the market to layer point solutions onto already complex environments. But AI doesn’t operate in silos. It runs on the same identities, permissions, and data you manage every day. That’s why Atlassian takes a holistic, end-to-end approach to information protection.

In this breakout, Rob Bissett, joined by Sudhanva Ramesh, VP Enterprise Transformation & Agile Strategy at Synchrony Financial, will walk through Atlassian’s approach to information protection across the platform: from infrastructure and deployment options, to data security and compliance, and finally the AI-specific controls built on top.

We’ll showcase new Guard capabilities and AI controls.

Key takeaways:

• Why data security is the fastest path to safer AI: if your data and access controls are weak, AI will amplify the resulting risk.
• How Guard helps you reduce data risks through capabilities like sensitive data discovery, classification, policies, audit logs, and threat detection (plus what’s new & coming soon!).
• How customers are approaching AI adoption today: what they did first, what they wish they did sooner, and what helped them move faster with confidence.
