AI governance program

Clear rules for how your organization uses and builds AI, who approves it and how you show it’s under control.

A Fortify Experts AI governance program gives you an AI acceptable-use policy, an inventory of AI tools and models, an approval workflow for new AI uses, defined roles and reporting, aligned to NIST AI RMF and ready to grow into ISO/IEC 42001.

What you get

  • AI acceptable-use policy employees can follow
  • An inventory of AI tools, models and vendors in use, including shadow AI
  • A risk-tiered approval workflow for new AI uses
  • Roles and responsibilities for AI oversight
  • Vendor due-diligence questions for AI suppliers
  • Reporting for leadership and the board

Questions we hear

How long does it take to stand up AI governance?

A workable first version (policy, inventory, approval process and owners) typically takes weeks, not months. Maturing it toward ISO 42001 takes longer and depends on how much AI you build yourself.

Who should own AI governance?

A named executive, supported by a cross-functional group from security, legal, privacy, IT and the business. We help define the roles and can serve as your AI governance lead through a vCISO engagement.
