As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embedded in business operations and with the surge of AI Agents, the need for strong data governance has never been more critical. Without proper oversight, AI systems can introduce significant risks—ranging from data breaches and regulatory violations, to accessing and sharing sensitive information. This blog post provides an overview of the key focus areas in Infotechtion’s i-ARM data centric AI Governance Platform, a solution purpose-built to help organizations manage and mitigate AI related risks.
Why AI Compliance matters
The AI Act and other legislation and international standards require organizations that use AI to meet multiple security and compliance requirements. Many organizations find this challenging, as the legislation can be vague and difficult to adhere to. By aligning with key legislative frameworks such as the EU AI Act and global standards like ISO/IEC 42001, our platform offers practical tools for ensuring data quality, traceability, human oversight, and regulatory compliance. Understanding and implementing these principles is essential for building trustworthy, accountable AI systems that can scale responsibly in today’s complex regulatory environment. If you want a deeper dive into the i-ARM AI Governance Platform’s alignment with industry standards and legislation, I recommend reading CTO Vivek Bhatt’s previous blogpost Deep Research: Infotechtion’s AI Governance Platform.
Enhancing your organization’s AI-Driven Data Governance with i-ARM
Infotechtion’s i-ARM service is designed to provide comprehensive data governance through AI-driven security, compliance, and lifecycle management. The service is divided into four main areas:
Data Classification and Operational Automation – How does the technology work?
The i-ARM services use a combination of rules-based and AI model classifiers to evaluate and classify data. This includes (but is not limited to) sensitive personal information and medical data, leveraging large language models for enhanced accuracy. The classification process can trigger various actions, such as applying security controls, data lifecycle management, and informing security operations centers. Â
i-ARM is built as a multi-microservices solution to better suit your needs
The i-ARM service is built on a robust technical architecture that leverages microservices. This architecture allows for modular deployment and scalability. Each function within i-ARM is a microservice, working towards a single data model. This enables you to tailor the solution to your business needs, ensuring the best possible and bespoke solution. The multi-microservice architecture also provides great flexibility and ensures that changes to one microservice do not impact on the entire system, providing a robust system with ease of updates for maximum uptime and efficiency.Â
Integration with Microsoft Purview – Extending and enhancing Purview’s native capabilities
Â
Infotechtion has collaborated closely with Microsoft to integrate i-ARM with Microsoft Purview. This integration allows for real-time alerts and logging of AI interactions, enhancing the security and audit capabilities of the service. The integration ensures that all interactions, including those with third-party AI applications, are audited and discoverable, providing a comprehensive security framework.Â
Future Directions and Enhancements
The i-ARM research team has also added a data bot interface. This interface will provide a conversational way for data stewards and auditors to interact with the data models, ask questions, and receive visual responses. The development roadmap also includes agentic AI integration, enabling data stewards to execute actions directly through the interface, further streamlining data centric AI governance processes.Â
Conclusion
The innovations included in Infotechtion’s AI governance solution, coupled with the earlier Microsoft Purview integration, provide organizations with the toolset necessary to meet and exceed EU AI Act obligations for transparency, traceability, risk management, and human oversight.
