ANECDOTE

Secure Islands Sale Shaped Murato's Approach

  • Aki built Secure Islands to protect unstructured data and sold it to Microsoft, which used the tech in Azure Information Protection.
  • That background shaped his focus on data-centric security and later Murato's TPRM AI approach.
INSIGHT

AI Multiplies Assessor Capacity

  • AI can read thousands of pages of supplier evidence and automatically find supporting control evidence to scale assessment capacity.
  • Mirato trains one model once and effectively multiplies assessors, integrating external data sources without hiring SMEs.
ADVICE

Make Vendors Upload Evidence Not Fill Forms

  • Ask vendors to upload evidence instead of answering questionnaires and auto‑populate answers from those documents.
  • Mirato's MQK auto-answers most questions and provides attestations plus an audit trail and links to supporting pages.
