Govt Bars Officials From Uploading Classified Data to Public AI Tools

The government has implemented new guidelines prohibiting officials from uploading classified data to public AI tools, following concerns over potential data leaks. The National CERT has released the National Cyber Security Handbook 2026-27, which includes the Pakistan Information Security Framework 2026. Under these new rules, government employees are not allowed to share official emails, software source code, or personal data on AI platforms.

The guidelines instruct officials to remove sensitive information from AI prompts and files, and to report any accidental disclosures to the cybersecurity team. Additionally, the use of AI-generated content in government work requires human oversight, and any AI-generated material cannot be used in official matters without proper security and privacy checks.
