A new AI coding tool launches every week. Your developers want access. Your competitors are already shipping faster. But your CISO has questions, compliance needs documentation, and legal wants guardrails. How do you move from “no” to “yes” without creating risk?

This session provides a practical governance framework for enabling AI development tools like Claude Code, Copilot, and Codex. We’ll address the real blocker most organizations face: not just the technology, but stakeholder alignment between those who want speed and those responsible for security and compliance.

In this co-presentation, RKON’s CISO and CTO share their firsthand experience navigating this exact challenge. RKON implemented its internal AI policy in 2023 and has been pressure-testing AI development tools ever since. You’ll hear both sides of the conversation and how they found common ground.

You’ll leave with a framework for evaluating AI tools, aligning stakeholders, and establishing the policy and technical controls that enable innovation without sacrificing security. Whether you’re facing pressure to adopt these tools or already have developers using them unofficially, this session gives you a path forward.
