As AI becomes more integrated into our work, security becomes increasingly important. Here's how to use AI tools safely while protecting your sensitive information.
Understanding the Risks
When you share information with AI systems, you should be aware of:
- Data retention policies
- How your data might be used for training
- Who has access to your conversations
- Potential for data breaches
Best Practices
1. Never Share Sensitive Data
Avoid sharing passwords, API keys, personal identification numbers, or confidential business information. If you need to work with sensitive data, anonymize it first.
2. Use Enterprise Solutions
For business use, choose AI platforms with enterprise-grade security. Thamone AI offers data encryption, no training on your data, and SOC 2 compliance.
3. Review Before Sharing
Before pasting any content into an AI chat, review it for sensitive information. It's easy to accidentally include confidential details.
4. Understand Data Policies
Read and understand the data retention and usage policies of any AI tool you use. Know where your data goes and how long it's kept.
5. Use Separate Accounts
Keep personal and work AI usage separate. This helps maintain boundaries and reduces risk.
