AI Meets Information Governance in the Public Sector
Wednesday, April 8, 2026 | 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. ET
Public sector AI adoption is caught in a "regulatory paradox": a strong push for rapid innovation occurring alongside a lack of clear roadmaps and regulations for information safety. Data privacy regulations remain in full force.
For government information owners, the burden of responsibility for information governance has landed squarely on your shoulders. To innovate and modernize while keeping your information safe, you need a responsible information governance model that ensures only high-quality, compliant data is available for AI tools.
During this session, we’ll explore the four immediate steps you can take to ensure your agency’s AI adoption is secure, compliant, and trustworthy.
Enforcing information minimization
Implementing “need-to-keep” retention policies for AI tools
Demanding privacy-preserving information architectures
The importance of keeping a human in the loop
