Blog & Newsschnellstart.ai | Governance
Fast but clean: govern AI safely
30–50% of your employees use AI tools without your knowledge. Most Swiss SMEs have already paid for the governance tools, they are just not activated. We uncover shadow AI, switch on the Microsoft governance you already own, and roll Copilot out FADP-compliantly. From 'no idea' to 'under control' in four weeks.
Make shadow AI visible
We examine Entra ID, Defender logs, and how your team actually works. You see which AI tools are really in use, including the unauthorized ones.
Activate Microsoft instead of replacing it
Defender, Purview, Sensitivity Labels and Conditional Access are already in your M365 license. We configure what you have already paid for.
Swiss-hosted where it matters
For sensitive processes (fiduciary, healthcare, legal) we add Swiss hosting. Data does not leave Switzerland. No rip-and-replace.
Our services
Copilot Governance Setup
Clean up SharePoint permissions, configure Sensitivity Labels, create DLP rules, enable audit logging. Copilot then runs FADP-compliantly, without oversharing risk.
AI Policy with Traffic-Light System
A practical AI usage policy with a traffic-light system (green/yellow/red). Your team knows what is allowed, and uses AI more productively, not less.
Swiss-hosted AI for critical data
For sensitive processes (fiduciary, healthcare, legal) we evaluate and implement Swiss-hosted AI solutions. Data never leaves Switzerland. 100% FADP-compliant.
Employee Training
Hands-on training on safe AI usage: which data may go where, how to use Copilot productively, how to recognise risks. Includes refresher material.
DPIA & Vendor Management
Data Protection Impact Assessment for Microsoft Copilot, vendor reviews for AI tools, data processing agreements. Audit-ready documentation for your compliance file.
Our Approach
Microsoft for productivity. Swiss-hosted for sovereignty. Governance for both.
We don't force you to move away from Microsoft. Most Swiss SMEs run on M365, and that's fine. We activate what you already pay for and add Swiss-hosted only where it genuinely matters for compliance.
Engagement Models
From a focused shadow AI audit to a full governance programme. Choose the scope that fits your situation.
Swiss Infrastructure
Where data is particularly sensitive (fiduciary, healthcare, legal) we add Swiss-hosted AI. Data never leaves Switzerland.

“We had no idea that 14 different AI tools were connected to our Microsoft accounts. After the audit it was obvious where to act, and the setup was done in four weeks.”
