Customer spotlight: Adobe, from Data Citizens on the Road

AI is moving fast and governance must shift down to avoid being audit-ready and risk blind. Without governance built into the foundation, every new model, agent, and AI-powered product becomes a liability waiting to happen. Join this session to explore why framework-based governance is broken and see how embedding control directly into your data infrastructure transforms compliance from a bottleneck into a competitive advantage. In this video you will learn: * The importance of shifting from "shift left" to "shift down" in data governance to accommodate the rapid pace of AI development * How Adobe has grown its data governance team and the significance of AI as an accelerant in governance * The concept of creating a "Garden of Eden" for data, allowing freedom while maintaining necessary restrictions * The emergence of three personas in the AI and data governance landscape: model developers, product developers, and weekend warriors * The need for a governance framework that includes identifying, using, and protecting data, especially in the context of AI * The challenges of data discovery and classification at scale, and the importance of building a catalog for data access * The role of orchestration in enabling both people and robots to access and utilize data efficiently * The shift in perception of governance from a checkbox task to a critical enabler of business success. * The limitations of existing frameworks like NIST and ISO 42001 in addressing the fast-paced changes brought by AI * The necessity for governance to be proactive and forward-thinking to prevent potential risks and issues Watch more Data Citizens on the Road sessions at https://www.collibra.com/resources/watch-on-demand-data-citizens-on-the-road-2026
