SPC Group's Sectanine recently adopted enterprise ChatGPT across the entire company. The decision came amid security concerns over employees' individual use of various generative artificial intelligence services.
According to IT industry sources on the 12th, Sectanine, SPC Group's IT and marketing affiliate, recently signed a contract with Samsung SDS to implement ChatGPT Enterprise. This marks the first contract Samsung SDS has secured since obtaining reseller rights for OpenAI's enterprise service in December last year.
The decision to adopt ChatGPT Enterprise company-wide stemmed from difficulties controlling employees' AI service usage. As generative AI adoption has grown among office workers, Sectanine employees had been voluntarily using various AI tools for work. While this boosted productivity, the use of different AI services by individuals and teams made it difficult to monitor the input of internal company data. This posed a significant security risk.
Sectanine determined that continued fragmented use of generative AI services would make security risks unmanageable, necessitating a standardized AI solution. Internal discussions also emphasized the need to establish company-wide AI usage guidelines once all employees were on a single platform. Sectanine proceeded with ChatGPT Enterprise implementation, receiving support from Samsung SDS for security reviews and initial service usage guidance. Since unifying on ChatGPT Enterprise, the company has reportedly automated routine tasks and improved communication efficiency between development and non-development departments.
"Security and data exposure were our biggest concerns, and we also considered costs—ChatGPT Enterprise was the most suitable service," said Choo Yeon-jin, Executive Vice President at Sectanine. "The longer companies delay AI adoption, the wider the gap becomes."
