AI & Transformation / Governance

Govern AI at the speed people are adopting it

1600 Cyber helps organizations create practical rules, decision rights, controls, and oversight for AI. Governance is designed to enable responsible use—not bury teams in process.

The challenge

Employees and departments can adopt AI faster than formal policy, procurement, security, and legal review can respond. Leaders need immediate visibility and interim guardrails while a durable governance model is built.

What we help you achieve

01

A reliable inventory of AI use and ownership

02

Clear acceptable-use rules and approval pathways

03

Risk-based oversight proportionate to each use case

04

Defined accountability across business and control functions

05

Evidence that supports leadership, customers, and regulators
