AI Agents as the next GRC Frontier w/ Shruti Gupta from Zania | S2E2

In this episode of the GRC Engineering Podcast, host Ayoub Fandi and guest Shruti Gupta dive into the complexities of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) and the significant role AI can play in transforming this field.

Shruti shares her extensive experience across various tech companies (Microsoft, AirBnB, Instacart, etc.), highlighting the challenges GRC professionals face, such as managing a wide array of responsibilities under tight deadlines while relying on traditional tools that often fall short.

The conversation emphasizes how AI can automate repetitive tasks, allowing GRC professionals to focus on more strategic initiatives and enhance their overall impact within their organizations.

Ultimately, we discuss the misconceptions surrounding AI and job security, framing AI as an enabler that empowers professionals to engage in meaningful work rather than a threat to their roles.

Shruti is the CEO of Zania, a company dedicated to enabling the power of AI in the context of GRC.
