I've contributed two major frameworks to operationalize AI agent governance:
Operationalizes all 61 ATF controls into audit-ready procedures that organizations can use immediately.
What it provides:
- ✅ Audit Procedures - Step-by-step verification for each control
- ✅ Evidence Requirements - What compliance teams must produce
- ✅ Maturity Scoring - Measure compliance posture (0-100%)
- ✅ Framework Mappings - ISO 42001, ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF
- ✅ Industry Playbooks - Financial Services, Healthcare, EU guidance
- ✅ Compliance Tools - Scoring calculator and assessment templates
Automates compliance monitoring so organizations go from "audit next quarter" to "audit-ready anytime."
What it enables:
- ✅ Automated Evidence Collection - Real-time telemetry from operational systems
- ✅ Continuous Monitoring - Real-time compliance scoring (not quarterly audits)
- ✅ On-Demand Reporting - Compliance dashboards and audit packages
- ✅ Automated Alerts - Immediate notification when controls drift
- ✅ CMMC 2.0 Support - Compliance mapping for defense contractors
- ✅ 80-90% Cost Reduction - Transforms compliance from manual to automated
Together, these frameworks show the complete picture of AI agent governance:
- PR #19: How to audit controls
- PR #20: How to continuously verify compliance
Result: Organizations can move from "compliance is a quarterly exercise" to "compliance is continuous and automated"—essential as agentic AI deployment accelerates across regulated industries.
