Skyflow Introduces Skyflow for Glean to Safeguard Critical Data

In August 2026, Skyflow unveiled Skyflow for Glean, which is a data security and governance layer intended for enterprises. Enterprises deal with a massive number of documents and records that are not synchronized. Skyflow has significant experience in safeguarding a huge number of records for Fortune 500 companies. This launch increases the reach of the protection by including enterprise AI search and has started with Glean deployments.

Kearney, which is a prominent management consulting firm, released Glean across a large number of consultants, creating a need to connect massive amounts of client data while adhering to privacy regulations. Skyflow controls the context so that consultants can access only the authorized engagements and the audit trail. According to Mark Johnson, Partner and Chief Information and Digital Officer at Kearney, the company does not want to spend time and resources on data safeguarding. He said that Skyflow provided Kearney with per-field encryption and runtime policies.

AI agents procure data from a variety of sources, such as CRMs, SaaS applications, and raw data repositories. The main challenge is which data sources the AI agent should be allowed to access in various circumstances. Conventionally, companies just block access to critical data, but this reduces the quality of training and output of the AI model, as it can access only a part of the relevant information.

Enterprise search tools like Glean implement authorized access, which enables employees and AI agents to access the data that they are authorized to view. Skyflow enables fine-grained control at the data field level. This is an important feature, as AI search summarizes and performs agent reasoning on unrefined data. Skyflow for Glean performs the following tasks:

• Skyflow looks out for sensitive values and converts them into tokens before the data enters the search index and embeddings. 
• It executes policy-based masking, rehydration, and context filtering so that users and agents can only access authorized data.

Impact on the AI Industry

According to Precedence Research, the launch of Skyflow for Glean is expected to positively impact the AI industry. AI is being increasingly adopted in various regulated sectors because it helps to enhance the pace and efficiency of routine workflows. The companies operating in such sectors need to keep an eye on who is accessing their data. They need to restrict access to classified data to prevent any data privacy law violations. The development of Glean will allow such companies to adopt advanced AI models without worrying about data breaches.

Impact on the Cloud Computing Market

The global cloud computing market size was estimated at USD 912.77 billion in 2025 and is predicted to increase from USD 1,106.28 billion in 2026 to approximately USD 5,946.84 billion by 2035, expanding at a CAGR of 20.61% from 2026 to 2035.

According to Precedence Research, the introduction of Skyflow for Glean is expected to benefit the cloud computing market. Glean allows enterprises that operate in regulated sectors to provide authorized data access to clients and AI agents. This will propel the adoption of automation technologies in companies operating in heavily regulated sectors. They require elaborate cloud setups to securely store and process their data. Most of the companies typically use hybrid cloud setups. They use a private cloud to store critical data and a public cloud for non-sensitive data.

Impact on the Enterprise Artificial Intelligence (AI) Market

The global enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) market size is estimated at USD 20.93 billion in 2025 and is anticipated to reach around USD 592.51 billion by 2035, expanding at a CAGR of 39.70% between 2026 and 2035.

According to Precedence Research, the launch of Skyflow for Glean is expected to positively impact the enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) market. Many enterprises today deal with a diverse array of documents and records, and they need to customize access according to the client. The advent of AI technologies has further complicated workflows, as companies need to control data access for AI agents. Skyflow for Glean helps such enterprises to properly control access to documents and records for clients and AI agents. This will enable them to adopt advanced automation technologies.
