Disclaimer:
The AI tools and concepts presented in this session are intended to assist with business continuity planning and decision support. While these systems are designed to provide accurate, context-aware recommendations based on internal data and best practices, they should not be considered a substitute for professional judgment, regulatory consultation, or cybersecurity expertise.

All AI functionality described operates within a closed, secure environment using client-approved data. No external AI models (such as GPT or publicly accessible APIs) are used unless explicitly stated. User inputs, business data, and recommendations remain private and are not transmitted to third parties.

Important Considerations:

The AI assistant is not infallible. Its outputs should be reviewed and verified by qualified professionals before acting on critical decisions.

AI-generated guidance may not reflect the latest legal, regulatory, or compliance changes. Always consult a certified expert for sensitive matters.

AI-driven continuity planning is a support tool—it should complement, not replace, human decision-making, policy review, and disaster recovery testing.

Be mindful of the data provided as input to the AI model, particularly regarding sensitive or confidential information. Even when operating in a secure, closed environment, using AI models can lead to inadvertent disclosure of confidential information.

By using or engaging with these tools, users accept responsibility for reviewing and validating AI-generated content before implementation.
