From this article. A major announcement just dropped this week, BigID and Atlan are joining forces to create the first catalog unifying structured and unstructured data. The goal is crystal clear, providing a single governance and security foundation that is actually ready for AI. Until now, many companies were flying blind. Business lines are pushing hard to deploy innovative AI workflows, but governance teams lack visibility into the mountains of unstructured, and often sensitive, data feeding these models. By integrating risk signals directly into the catalog, business context is finally linked to security in real time. The Verdict: If your data catalog does not speak the language of both the CDO (Governance) and the CISO (Security) simultaneously, your AI agents will remain prototypes blocked by risk. Managing structured data in a silo is no longer enough. Generative AI feeds on unstructured chaos, and that is exactly where the battle for scale is won. Let’s Discuss: 1. The Blind Spot: Do you have a clear map of the unstructured data feeding your AI initiatives today, or are you just crossing your fingers that nothing sensitive leaks? 2. The CDO and CISO Duo: In your organization, do data governance and cybersecurity share the same operational view, or are they still fighting through support tickets?

Hey team! 👋 I am putting the final touches on the "CDMP Accelerator: Pass in 4 Weeks course".
