Investor Brief: AI, Security & Privacy

As companies across all sectors rush to integrate AI across their organizations, oversight of its many risks is an afterthought. AI security incidents have more than doubled since 2024. Of the organizations breached in 2025, 63% had no AI governance mechanisms and 97% lacked basic access controls. At the same time, companies are collecting and aggregating more sensitive personal data than ever before. The combination of these two trends represents an unprecedented risk to privacy and security. Investors can encourage companies to mitigate this risk before a breach occurs. This starts, above all, with strong AI and cybersecurity governance practices.
