Retrieval Augmented Generation explained: Secure AI for Enterprises

In this episode of Illuminating Information, Joshua Cole, Head of Technical Sales at Mindbreeze, explains how RAG combines enterprise search with generative AI to produce answers grounded in secure, authoritative data. We explore how RAG works, why standalone generative AI models fall short in enterprise environments, and how access control and traceability dramatically reduce hallucinations while increasing trust. Joshua also shares the difference between traditional RAG and Agentic RAG, how vector search and semantic similarity power intelligent retrieval, and how Mindbreeze InSpire integrates Agentic workflows to deliver structured search, automated touchpoint selection, and dynamic data views. If you are exploring secure enterprise AI, this episode offers practical insight into how organizations are moving from experimentation to operational impact.
