Beyond the AI Hype: How Global Enterprises Can Prevent the Next Wave of AI Silos

Free the CISO, a podcast series that attempts to free CISOs from their shackles so they can focus on securing their organization, is produced by CIO.com in partnership with DataBee®, from Comcast Technology Solutions.
In each episode, Robin Das, Executive Director at Comcast under the DataBee team, explores the CISO’s role through the position’s relationship with other security stakeholders, from regulators and the Board of Directors to internal personnel and outside vendors.

About the Webinar
Enterprises across EMEA and the U.S. are scaling AI fast—but many are unintentionally creating AI silos as teams build models, pipelines, and automation outside enterprise architecture and governance. AI introduces derived data flows, embedded decision logic, and opaque lineage that legacy controls weren’t designed to manage—raising risk, cost, and technical debt.
This webinar introduces a practical, globally applicable solution: Governed Experimentation Zones, controlled environments that let teams innovate quickly with visibility, guardrails, and alignment to enterprise architecture and emerging regulations (including the EU AI Act, ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF, and evolving U.S. guidance). We’ll also spotlight the BISO as a critical translator and broker—working with GRC, Cyber, and Asset Management to challenge assumptions, connect data, and accelerate business-aligned AI outcomes without fragmentation.
This webinar features a remarkable panel of leaders operating at global scale: Myriam Abiaad (BISO, Sky in Europe), Yasmine Abdillahi (BISO, Comcast), and Erin Hamm (Field Chief Data Officer, DataBee) will share real-world practices for preventing AI silos and operationalizing AI governance.
