Mindflair plc, the company investing in next-generation technology focused on AI, notes the announcement made by Forcepoint ("Forcepoint"), a global leader in data-first cybersecurity solutions, that it has unveiled its comprehensive GenAI Security solution, offering visibility, control, and risk-based data protection across generative AI platforms, including integration with OpenAI's ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API. Getvisibility, one of Mindflair's investee companies, works closely with Forcepoint, powering part of this overall solution.

Part of Forcepoint's mission is to deliver 'data security everywhere,'and this solution empowers businesses and government agencies to securely leverage GenAI innovations, accelerating their AI transformation while maintaining stringent data security and compliance standards.

One of the elements of the Forcepoint solution is Forcepoint DSPM which enhances the speed and accuracy of data classification and protection using AI Mesh technology-an industry-first network of language models and machine learning algorithms and is powered by Getvisibility. The AI Mesh increases the speed and accuracy of data discovery, classification, risk assessment, and risk mitigation, ensuring confidential data remains protected even when used in large language models.

Forcepoint's integration with ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API enables the monitoring of data interactions within the ChatGPT environment, supporting regulatory compliance. Forcepoint offers a detailed map of data flow and user behaviour to enhance activity tracking and geo-restriction enforcement. This proactive approach helps ensure organisations can prevent data breaches and simplify compliance in an AI-driven world.
