Secure and private AI is the difference between a pilot that clears legal and one that dies in procurement. The work is concrete: classify each use case under the EU AI Act risk tiers, sign the right data processing terms so prompts aren't used for training, pin data to a region, and scope retrieval so the model only ever sees documents the user is allowed to see. This pillar covers the governance, privacy, deployment, and access-control decisions that win enterprise and regulated-industry deals.
Audience: CTOs, security and compliance leads, and ops owners who need AI to pass legal, IT security review, and data protection before it ships
