[PALO ALTO, February 25] – Singulr AI, a leading provider of AI governance and security solutions, today announced the appointment of Richard Bird as its Chief Security Officer (CSO). As the use of AI accelerates, enterprise leaders need help developing adoption strategies and programs for managing the new business risks.
