STACK Launches AI Hub – AI Resources for Small Business Owners

    AI is transforming everyday work, and business leaders need practical guidance, not hype.

    That’s exactly why STACK Cybersecurity launched the STACK AI Hub. It’s a free resource that helps businesses of all sizes figure out how to use AI without compromising security or compliance.

    Based in Livonia, Mich., STACK built this for the business owners and professionals who keep asking the same question: “How do you use AI tools without creating a massive security risk?”

    The hub starts with something called AIRE (Artificial Intelligence Readiness Evaluation). It’s a straightforward 25-question assessment that shows where an organization stands. Are the security measures ready? How’s the data governance? Is the technical infrastructure up to the task? Users get real answers, not tech jargon.

    The hub also includes a downloadable AI Policy Template because most companies don’t have one yet. Employees are probably already using AI tools, whether management knows it or not. This template helps establish clear boundaries: which tools are approved, how to handle company data, and who’s accountable when something goes wrong.

    Shadow AI is real, and it’s probably happening in organizations right now. That’s when employees use AI tools without IT approval, potentially exposing sensitive information or creating compliance issues that won’t surface until it’s too late. The AI Hub helps companies get control before problems arise.

    STACK has already hosted two workshops for small business owners, focusing on practical AI applications that actually make sense for their operations. More educational content is on the way, and the hub will stay updated as technology and regulations evolve.
