The AI Blind Spot Is Growing Every Day

Your employees are already using AI tools to write emails, summarise documents, generate code, and analyse data. Most of them aren't telling you. The question isn't whether AI is being used in your organisation. It's whether you know what data is going into it.

36%

of employees upload sensitive company data to AI tools

Strategic plans, technical data and financials are the most common uploads, with 24% also putting customer PII into public AI platforms.

$4.63M

average cost of a shadow AI breach

$670K more than standard breaches. 1 in 5 organisations already affected

77%

of GenAI users paste data into AI tools

82% of that pasting happens from unmanaged personal accounts, and 22% of pastes contain PII or PCI data.

AI Is the Biggest Blind Spot in Your Organisation

Data Leakage

Employees paste source code, client data, financial models, and legal documents into AI chatbots. Once it’s in the prompt, it’s in the AI provider’s system.

Shadow AI

Your team is using AI tools you haven’t approved, on accounts you don’t control, with data you can’t track. Standard endpoint security tools don’t detect AI usage.

Compliance Risk

Regulated industries face increasing scrutiny over AI data handling. “We didn’t know” is not a defence when client data appears in AI prompts.

How ActivityPulse Detects AI Usage

Every interaction with AI tools is captured in real-time. Prompts are analysed for sentiment and classified for risk.

Three Ways Data Flows to AI. All Captured.

Typed Prompts

When an employee types a question or instruction into an AI service, ActivityPulse captures the text. Detects submission via Enter key, typing timeout, or app switching.

Pasted Content

When an employee pastes text into an AI service, often source code, email content, or document text, it’s captured as a separate event. This is frequently the highest-risk data flow.

Copied Responses

When an employee copies text from an AI response, such as code snippets, generated content, or summaries, it’s captured. This tracks data flowing out of AI services back into your organisation.

🇪🇺 EU AI Act (2024)

The world’s first comprehensive AI law. Requires organisations to maintain records of AI system usage, conduct risk assessments, and demonstrate transparency. Fines up to 7% of global revenue.

🇦🇺 Australia’s National AI Plan (2025)

Existing privacy and consumer laws apply to AI. The OAIC requires disclosure of automated decision-making by December 2026. A new AI Safety Institute (operational 2026) will assess risks. The Privacy Act reforms make AI data governance a board-level obligation.

🏢 ISO/IEC 42001 (2023)

The first international standard for AI management systems. Requires organisations to establish, implement, and continuously improve AI governance. Auditors will ask for evidence.

🔒 Industry Mandates

Finance (APRA CPS 230/234), healthcare (My Health Records Act), legal (professional conduct rules), and Australian government agencies (DTA AI Policy v2.0, effective December 2025) all require demonstrable AI data controls.
