AI Governance & Strategy
Build AI Into Your Business Without Losing Control
AI is reshaping every industry. But without a governance framework, it introduces real liability. Framework helps you adopt AI confidently — with strategy, policy, and oversight built in from day one.

The Problem
AI Moves Fast. Most Businesses Aren't Ready for It
Executives are under pressure to adopt AI — but few have policies, risk controls, or compliance guardrails in place. That gap creates exposure: legal, regulatory, reputational, and operational.
The Solution
An AI Governance Framework Built for Your Business
Framework's AI Strategy and Governance practice — led by a dedicated Director of AI and Risk — helps organizations define acceptable use, manage model risk, and align AI adoption with business goals.
Clarity Before Action
Security decisions made without visibility are just guesses. We build a precise picture of your risk landscape first — so every recommendation we make is grounded in your reality, not a generic playbook.
Confidence Under Pressure
When an incident strikes or an audit looms, preparation is everything. We ensure your team knows exactly what to do, with the tools, plans, and expertise to respond with speed and control.
Security Built for Growth
Your business doesn't stand still — and neither does your threat landscape. Our programs are built to evolve alongside you, delivering lasting protection as your organization scales, pivots, and advances.

Some common questions we get
Still have a question? Email us at contact@frameworksecurity.com
Who is this checklist for?
It is written for fintech executives, CISOs, CTOs, and risk and compliance leaders who are deploying or evaluating AI tools and need a governance framework that can hold up to regulatory scrutiny.
How long does it take to complete?
Most people work through it in 15 to 20 minutes. You can also complete it in sections if you need to pull in input from your IT team.
What do I do after I complete it?
The checklist is designed to give you a clear picture of where you stand. If you find gaps you want help addressing, Framework Security offers advisory services ranging from a single consultation to ongoing Virtual CISO support. There is no obligation to engage further.
Is this checklist specific to a particular regulation or framework?
It draws on requirements and guidance from the CFPB, SEC, ECOA, Reg B, NYDFS, and MITRE ATLAS. It is designed to be broadly applicable across the fintech regulatory landscape rather than narrowly tied to a single rule.
Do I need a technical background to use this?
No. The checklist is written for executive decision-makers. Some sections reference technical controls, but the focus is on organizational accountability, governance structure, and defensible decision-making.
