Drive Secure Volumes of Data at Scale With Appen

Figure Eight (now Appen) needed to deliver large volumes of high-quality training data while protecting sensitive information for customers in regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and government. To meet this challenge they partnered with IBM Cloud Pak for Data, using the platform’s enterprise data and AI capabilities to ensure secure, compliant handling of annotation workflows.

With IBM Cloud Pak for Data, Figure Eight set up protected annotation environments—placing annotators behind firewalls and supporting any level of data security—so teams can label sensitive and unstructured data and convert it into usable training sets. The IBM Cloud Pak for Data solution enabled scalable, secure labeling workflows that reduce exposure risk and accelerate customers’ AI initiatives by unlocking value from unstructured data.
