Trace Where Information Goes in Connected GenAI
Explore how to trace the flow of information within connected GenAI systems to identify data exposure points and unknowns in logging, retention, and vendor processing. Understand how to document these paths clearly and decide when to proceed, restrict, or escalate AI use based on traceability and environment authorization.
We'll cover the following...
A team can ask the same question in two GenAI setups and get the same-looking answer. One setup is a standalone chat where the user pastes only what they typed. The other is a chat that can search internal sources, read shared drives, or look up tickets. The mistake is treating those two setups as equally safe because the prompt text looks identical.
A prompt is only the visible start of the workflow. In a connected setup, the tool can pull in other material, store intermediate traces, and create outputs that get copied onward. That is why a reviewer cares about a data exposure path, meaning the route information can travel and be kept, not ...
