Summary
Veeam Software's new Data & AI Trust Gap report reveals that enterprise AI adoption is outpacing data governance, visibility, and recovery controls. Based on a global survey of 600 senior executives, the report finds that 88% of organizations are already using or piloting AI, but most lack the data trust infrastructure needed to support it safely. The company warns of a growing "Data and AI Trust Gap" as AI agents become more prevalent without corresponding data management capabilities.
