Healthcare can’t govern the AI tools it hasn’t found yet

A Paubox survey of healthcare leaders reveals that while 86% say their security or compliance teams review artificial intelligence (AI)-written code touching patient data before deployment, 70% have discovered AI-built tools handling that data without IT or security awareness. The gap exposes shadow AI development through coding assistants that bypass formal code review processes.

Why it matters: Healthcare organizations face unmonitored AI tools processing sensitive patient data, creating compliance and security risks that standard review procedures cannot detect or control.
