Knostic

Knostic is an artificial intelligence (AI) utility that is intended to improve security and efficiency by regulating access to large language models (LLMs) through need-to-know-based access controls. It guarantees the secure sharing of sensitive information and the redirection of users to pertinent data, all while preventing oversharing.

Features of Knostic:

• Need-to-Know Based Access Control: Restricted data access based on user clearance levels, guaranteeing that only authorized individuals can access sensitive information.
• Guided User Flows: Prevents users from being exposed to superfluous or sensitive information while directing them to pertinent data.
• Personalization of Information: Customizes content delivery to align with individual access rights, thereby improving security and relevance.
• Microsoft Copilot Readiness: Enables the secure integration of Microsoft Copilot and other LLM-driven tools to ensure the smooth operation of daily operations.

Positives:

• Enhanced Security: Reduces the likelihood of data leaks by rigorously enforcing access permissions.
• Enhanced Efficiency: The user experience is streamlined by the filtering of irrelevant data.
• Customization Specific to Users: Customizes the dissemination of information based on the user's access level.
• Continuous Support and Analysis: Consistently assesses and enhances security and functionality.

Negatives:

• Initial Setup Complexity: Requires alignment with existing security protocols, which may entail a steep learning curve.
• Focus on Accurate Role Definitions: Effectiveness is contingent upon the precise definition of user roles and permissions.
• Possible Resistance to Change: Employees who are acclimated to less restrictive access protocols may object.

• Large Enterprises: Ensuring the secure distribution of information and the protection of proprietary data.
• Financial Institutions: Guaranteeing information security and data privacy compliance in the administration of financial data.
• Healthcare Providers: Ensuring compliance with regulations such as HIPAA by regulating patient data access.
• Educational Institutions: Managing access to institutional information and research.
• Startups and Non-Profits: Facilitating information access and safeguarding volunteer data during scaling.
