Questions

How safe is Mindgard for IT & software development?
The maker of Mindgard publishes little about data protection. Ask before you put confidential IT & software development data into it. The provider publishes little on this, so ask first before business use.
Does Mindgard train on my data?
test your own AI models, agents and apps; which language model Mindgard uses itself is not public. Hosting location and training on customer data not public. SOC 2 Type 2. Spin-out of Lancaster University, offices in London and Boston (outside the EU).
What should I watch out for with AI in IT & software development?
Source code is trade secret and intellectual property. Check whether AI coding assistants store your code or use it for model training (an opt-out or business plan is required). Use on-premises or privacy-compliant variants for sensitive projects. AI-generated code sometimes contains security vulnerabilities or errors, so always have a developer review it, especially production code.
