One common reaction we’ve seen is companies trying to block all AI use. And honestly, it’s easy to see why. There’s fear around data exposure, limited visibility into what employees are actually using, and real pressure on leadership to act quickly when new risks emerge. That’s understandable, but it’s not realistic. There are too many tools. New ones appear daily. And even if you could block them all, what’s stopping an employee from using AI on their phone? Even worse, AI is already embedded into CRMs, productivity tools, and business platforms. Blocking standalone tools only solves part of the problem. It also doesn’t address incorrect expectations or external AI-driven threats.
