Cybersecurity Awareness Month highlights responsible AI

Across Omega 365, the campaign serves as a reminder to stay alert to online threats such as phishing attempts, data breaches, and social engineering. It also encourages team members to follow best practices for information security in their daily work. With certification under ISO 27001, Omega 365 ensures that its systems, tools, and people uphold the highest standards of security and compliance.

“It’s easy to forget how important security is in a busy workday. Cyber Security Month is a great reminder that we all have a role to play, whether we’re coding, designing, managing projects, working onsite with clients, or keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes in administration,” says Corporate HSEQ Manager Karina Hovden Stava.

This year’s focus goes beyond phishing prevention and secure information handling to also address the responsible use of artificial intelligence. As AI becomes a natural part of everyday work, Omega 365 underlines that innovation must be accompanied by responsibility.

Omega 365 has introduced new guidelines for responsible AI usage to reinforce data protection and promote ethical AI practices across its global operations. These guidelines emphasize the importance of safeguarding confidential information and ensuring that AI tools are used safely and transparently.

They also highlight how Omega 365 integrates secure, company-approved AI solutions, such as the AI assistant within the Omega 365 system and Microsoft Copilot for licensed users. By setting clear standards for AI usage, Omega 365 aims to encourage innovation while maintaining the highest levels of security and trust.

Software Systems Developer Augustas Alminas notes that the company’s approach focuses on combining efficiency with security.

“At Omega 365, our priority with AI integration is to enhance efficiency and user experience without reinventing the wheel or compromising security. We do not train models on customer data, ensuring that information remains fully confidential and under our clients’ control,” says Alminas.

He explains that Omega 365 leverages standard ChatGPT models securely deployed on Azure resources owned either by the company or by its clients. “Relevant data is provided only on demand through our custom tool calls or resources from the same Azure AI Foundry,” he adds.

“To support our developers, we offer both front-end and backend utilities for quickly creating standardized AI experiences. These include API wrappers, chat components, and system capabilities such as documentation search or general interfaces with our components like the data grid,” says Alminas.

He emphasizes that Omega 365’s AI solutions include robust content filters to detect and block harmful material. “For clients, this hopefully translates into working smarter, not harder. Whether it’s bulk-creating scope activities from a simple conversation or quickly analyzing large data sets with just a few prompts, our approach ensures secure, efficient, and user-friendly AI integration throughout our system,” he concludes.

Ultimately, the goal is to empower team members to navigate the digital world securely, safeguard sensitive data from malicious actors, and contribute to a safer digital environment for all.
