You got compliant—congrats! That’s a big milestone. It tells customers, investors, and the world that you take security seriously. But compliance doesn’t stop at your first audit.

When a trusted engineer can allegedly download proprietary Grok IP, and jump to a competitor, it exposes fundamental gaps in how we protect our most valuable digital assets.

It's about the reality that your company's most sensitive data is at the risk of exfiltration every day—in laptops, SaaS and AI apps, endpoints and browsers.
