Between the Guardrails (issue 19)
In this issue, we’ll take a look at an Inc. magazine article on why GenAI usage is surging while effective use remains elusive. We’ll then take the conversation further with our on-demand webinar, Driving GenAI Effectiveness with Productivity-First Governance, featuring the latest enterprise usage benchmarks. Plus, we'll show how PetSafe Brand built a fact-based approach to GenAI governance in just six weeks. Let’s dive in.


Inc. magazine featuring NROC Security

More employees are using GenAI than ever. But giving people access to GenAI tools doesn’t automatically translate into better productivity, better outcomes, or better ROI. In fact, the latest data suggests that most employees are still using GenAI at a relatively basic level.
The real opportunity lies in understanding how employees are using GenAI — not simply whether they’re using it. Explore the latest data behind the GenAI effectiveness gap and what organizations can do to help employees move from experimentation to meaningful productivity.
Read the Inc. magazine article to discover what the data reveals:
AI adoption is surging. Most employees still aren’t using it well
On-demand webinar: Productivity-first governance for GenAI effectiveness

Your employees are already using GenAI. But is it making them more productive or creating risk you can't see?
Governance may make it too loose and security gaps open. Or winds it too tight and people go for workarounds or start avoiding it. Active governance with the right metrics encourages usage, lowers risk and gives you a yardstick for effectiveness.
Watch the on-demand webinar, Driving GenAI Effectiveness with Productivity-First Governance, to learn how governance shapes both the security and effectiveness of GenAI usage, and the practical steps for putting productivity-first governance in place.
What’s new with NROC Security

PetSafe Brands encouraged GenAI usage but lacked visibility into how employees were using it. An NROC GenAI Assessment revealed the real picture — helping the security team move from guesswork to governance, with full visibility and reduced data leakage risk.
The NROC Security solution can now be deployed in observation-only mode to assess your organization’s GenAI usage. In addition to logging GenAI interactions, i.e. prompts and responses, this free 30-day assessment produces a board-ready presentation with usage metrics, risk exposure and analytics on effectiveness.
