AI Risk Governance
Ongoing frameworks, policies, and decision rights that help boards oversee AI adoption, employee AI use, generative AI risk, and enterprise AI deployments without building or tuning models.
Build defensible AI oversight around NIST guidance with board-ready risk registers, decision rights, policy templates, and executive reporting. Tyson Martin helps directors and leadership teams translate AI uncertainty into clear governance actions, so adoption can move forward responsibly without slowing the business or leaving unmanaged exposure to regulators, auditors, customers, and shareholders.
Practical AI governance support for boards and executives needing clear oversight, policies, and defensible decision-making.
Ongoing frameworks, policies, and decision rights that help boards oversee AI adoption, employee AI use, generative AI risk, and enterprise AI deployments without building or tuning models.
A focused 30-day sprint that delivers an AI risk assessment, decision-rights map, one-page board AI policy, and facilitated briefing for directors moving from informal oversight to a working framework.
A half-day or full-day workshop for boards and executive teams to identify major cyber and AI oversight gaps, then leave with a practical 90-day board action plan.
We begin by identifying where AI is being used, who owns each decision, and which board or executive committees need visibility. This creates a practical baseline before policies, dashboards, or risk scoring are introduced.
Enterprise security and governance leadership shaped by AWS, global retailers, and national cybersecurity organizations.
