[Request a Demo](https://cognome.com/contact-us) [Follow on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/cognome) 85% of AI usage in healthcare is unsanctioned 65% of Shadow AI incidents result in compromised patient data Growing Need for Trust-Centric Infrastructure As healthcare organizations adopt Agentic AI and generative models, traditional Zero Trust frameworks are no longer enough to secure modern AI workloads. The Current State ## Standard Zero Trust Frameworks Fall Short of Securing AI Every organization has AI running across its network that nobody authorized and nobody is watching. You can’t govern what you don’t know. ### Third-Party Vendor AI Models Unmanaged AI embedded in external software and workflows. ### Internal AI Models Custom-built AI systems operating without centralized governance. ### Public AI Usage ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other GenAI tools used outside policy controls. Shadow AI Growth Trend 2023 25%   2024 55%   2026 Forecast 85%   The exponential rise of Shadow AI workloads is creating a visibility gap across enterprise endpoints, networks, and edge environments. ## Zero Trust Enabled AI Discovery and Governance AI Sniffer continuously discovers AI across endpoints, networks and edge devices while ExplainerAI™ provides governance, monitoring, risk intelligence, centralized alerting and audit readiness. AI SNIFFER ARCHITECTURE ## Hub & Spoke Model AI Sniffer server   AI Sniffer agent\*   AI Sniffer agent   AI Sniffer agent   AI Sniffer agent   AI Sniffer agent   AI Sniffer agent HOW IT WORKS 1. 1 Agents monitor AI activity locally on the endpoint. 2. 2 Telemetry and events are securely sent to the AI Sniffer server. 3. 3 The server aggregates, analyzes, and correlates activity across all endpoints. 4. 4 Policies, threat intelligence, and updates are sent back to agents. 5. 5 Continuous protection and visibility are maintained across the fleet. \*Agents leverage NPU processing where available. AI Discovery ### AI Sniffer - Discovers unknown AI models and Shadow AI usage - Detects AI across endpoints, network infrastructure, and edge devices - Integrates third-party and internally developed AI models Continuous AI Monitoring ### ExplainerAI™ Governance - Real-time detection of hallucinations, PHI leaks, bias, and drift - Automated alerting and AI failure detection - Audit-ready lineage and traceability aligned to HIPAA and AI risk standards Learn more about ExplainerAI™ How It Works ## Continuous AI Risk Management 01 ### Detect & Connect Discovers unknown AI models and integrates any AI or ML system operating in your environment. 02 ### Continuous Monitoring Monitors AI usage in real time for hallucinations, PHI leakage, unsafe outputs, and bias. 03 ### Failure Detection & Alerts Identifies drift, degradation, unsafe behavior, and operational failures before they become incidents. 04 ### Audit-Ready Evidence Creates lineage, traceability, and governance evidence aligned to HIPAA and AI risk frameworks.
