AI Governance & Security Program Build

Define AI security ownership, intake, control expectations, release conditions, evidence requirements, exception handling, and an owned implementation backlog.

Decision answered

What ownership, controls, workflows, evidence, and backlog are required to operate AI security coherently?

Duration

Typical duration: 4–10 weeks or retainer, depending on scope.

Primary output

AI Security Operating Model and owned implementation backlog

Best for

Organizations that need to turn fragmented AI policy and risk work into a security-operational program.

Engagement type

Scoped program build or retainer

What is in scope

  • AI security ownership and intake
  • Control expectations and release conditions
  • Evidence requirements and lifecycle
  • Exception, escalation, and risk decisions
  • Owned implementation backlog and operating cadence

Inputs needed

  • Current AI inventory and ownership context
  • Security and governance policies
  • Existing controls, findings, and evidence
  • Relevant obligations and maintained framework mappings

What the work actually does

  • AI security operating model, ownership, governance cadence, and evidence lifecycle
  • Policy/control mapping across NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, OWASP, MITRE ATLAS, and internal controls
  • Secure AI SDLC program design, intake workflows, release gates, and decision records
  • Fractional CISO/vCISO-style advisory module when leadership capacity is needed

What the work delivers

  • AI Security Operating Model
  • Control Ownership Matrix
  • Release and exception workflow
  • Evidence Lifecycle Plan
  • Owned implementation backlog

Evidence produced

  • Ownership and decision records
  • Control and backlog relationships
  • Release and exception conditions
  • Evidence requirements and review cadence

Boundary

What this engagement does not establish

  • Vague policy-only governance consulting
  • A framework-compliance determination
  • Certification or conformity assessment
  • Proof that a mapped control is implemented or operating effectively

After the engagement

Execute the owned backlog, operate intake and exception workflows, collect control evidence, review material changes, and update priorities through the program cadence.

Optional deliverables: AI Governance Evidence Matrix, AI Security Program Scorecard baseline, Claim-Readiness Matrix. Selected according to engagement scope.
