Summary
According to a Red Hat survey cited by Computing, Spain is ahead of other countries in business adoption of AI, but lags in governance and data visibility. 85% of the Spanish CIOs surveyed say they are confident that their AI agents operate securely. Yet only 30% of them can determine exactly where the data used by these agents is stored and processed, which reveals a gap between stated confidence and real control over data governance.
