TECH INSTINCT PODCAST | EPISODE 14

AI adoption is moving faster than many security teams can track.

The question is no longer whether employees will use AI. It’s whether you know which tools they’re using, what company data is moving through them, and whether you have the visibility to manage the risk.

In this episode of Tech Instinct, MicroAge’s Rick Trujillo sits down with Vairavan Subramanian, VP of Product Management at Aurascape, to discuss Shadow AI, enterprise AI security, and how organizations can put guardrails around AI without slowing down adoption.

They cover how to discover unsanctioned AI tools, monitor prompts and responses, evaluate AI security platforms, coach employees toward safer AI behavior, and determine when activity should be blocked.

The conversation also explores AI token usage and cost visibility, prompt injection, the growing number of AI applications entering the enterprise, and the next major security challenge: agentic AI systems that can take actions on their own.
