Building and stewarding INDEX

80% of data security is manual work that shouldn’t be. We’re changing that. AI executes. Humans decide.

@NadavKeyson Love this! Lets go!!

I honestly think at this point in time, physically typing on a keyboard with real thoughts is how you stand out among the rest. (Which is a crazy thought)

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

Failing is the risk but so is wondering, either way it's a choice.

@iamshackelford Sick bro!!

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

This is def a governance question. Where you store skills matters less than who can invoke them, what version ran, and whether you have an audit trail. We’re solving this at INDEX with MCP-served skills + Entra ID RBAC + invocation logging SaaS model for org wide skills management

Freeing up engineers to work on what they actually love and take out the fluff that takes up engineering time is massively valuable. You basically free up 80% of the engineers brain to do they $500 tasks than having engineers doing $10 tasks. The output is much higher and much more valuable.

@DataCamp @richierocks Treating agentic AI like a new vendor is the right framing. Most companies would never give a third party unfiltered access to their data but that's exactly what happens with unscoped AI agents.

@ipfconline1 @Dataversity @FernandaKellner @sonu_monika @NewsNeus @Delshur The awareness to action gap is real. Most orgs have the policies on paper but no enforcement mechanism actually baked into their data stack.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@TCrossmd April is going to sneak up on a lot of orgs that are still running legacy retention policies they set and forgot.

@tomonari_q This is the part most RAG implementations skip. If your search index doesn't respect sensitivity labels, your copilot is a data leak waiting to happen.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@sspaeti Stewardship is the one that'll bite you hardest if you skip it. Agent hallucinating a metric confidently is way worse than no answer at all.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@databricks 12x is a wild number but it tracks. Governance removes the friction that kills projects in review cycles.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@CoriniumGlobal "Govern everything" is how you end up governing nothing well. Prioritization is the part most teams skip.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@OECDgov @OECD 0.53 out of 1.0 is still pretty sobering. A 10% bump sounds good until you realize we're barely past the halfway mark.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@jackfriks Not just you. It feels like the context window got worse at tracking long conversations.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@The_Cyber_News Cleartext IDs on a 433 MHz broadcast. It's basically a tracking beacon nobody asked for.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@notablecap @MorganStanley Data security growth makes sense when you see how many orgs still can't answer basic questions about where their sensitive data lives.

[Michael Grier @iammichaelgrier]

@The_Cyber_News Six months from a code change, not an attack. This is why code review needs to include data access checks, not just functionality.
