AI is already changing how businesses operate, often faster than policies, security controls, and leadership visibility can keep up.

Join Blankenship IT Solutions and Fortinet for a practical, nontechnical event designed for business owners, executives, and other organizational leaders who want to understand how to use AI more confidently without putting sensitive company or client information at risk.

Attendees will learn how to identify where AI is already showing up in their organization, reduce the risks of shadow AI, protect sensitive data, create practical AI usage policies, and better understand where AI can create real business value.

This session is especially relevant for CPA firms, law firms, nonprofits, professional services organizations, and other growing businesses that handle sensitive information or are trying to define a more intentional approach to AI.

Topics will include:

• How employees are already using AI, with or without formal approval
• What data should never be entered into public AI tools
• Shadow AI and the visibility gap it creates
• What a practical AI acceptable use policy should cover
• How security and visibility controls can support responsible AI adoption
• Where AI can improve productivity, decision-making, and business outcomes
