Secure RAG: Why AI should be permissions-aware from the start | Box AI Explainer Series EP 2

Box’s Enterprise AI Explainer Series episode on Secure Retrieval-Augmented Generation argues that enterprise AI systems must enforce content permissions before retrieving information, rather than relying only on controls after an answer is generated. Featuring Box CTO Ben Kus and senior product marketing manager Meena Ganesh, the video examines how conventional RAG can expose sensitive data when it retrieves documents a user is not authorized to access. It explains that secure, permission-aware RAG applies access controls throughout retrieval and generation, while noting that broad role-based access alone may not capture the nuanced, document-level permissions common in enterprise environments. The discussion frames these safeguards as essential for allowing organizations to use AI productively without compromising confidential content.
