AI Governance - Governance Controls Page

This guide shows how to navigate the Governance Controls page to track and assess AI safeguards aligned to the NIST AI RMF, letting you monitor adequacy, response status, and review history across six control functions. It explains filtering, progress indicators, quick links (attachments, comments, compensating controls, mappings), and how to record evaluations, dates, evidence, and change history. Use it to verify coverage, document audit evidence, and trace control mappings to frameworks.

Overview

Review the Governance Controls overview. The controls are aligned with the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and grouped into six functions.

Each control displays its safeguard identifier, title, adequacy percentage, response status, and last review date.

Check the implementation progress indicator in the section header.

Click the Response filter dropdown. Filtering by response allows focusing on specific control statuses such as unassigned, non-compliant, or compensating controls.

Click the Clear Filters button. Clearing active filters restores the full view of all governance controls across every section.

Click the collapse arrow next to any section header to collapse and expan the section.

Quick links are available for attachments, comments, compensating controls and mappings.

Answering the Controls

The Details tab will open with the description and free-text fields for Compensating Controls and Comments.

Adjust Tab

Click the Adjust tab at the top of the details panel. The Adjust tab allows you to self-assess your implementation and governance levels.

Mappings Tab

Click the Mappings tab. Mappings demonstrate how the control connects to NIST AI RMF subcategories and related framework controls.

Review the NIST AI RMF Subcategories section. This section details the specific NIST AI Risk Management Framework subcategories supported by the safeguard.

Review the Mapped CIS Controls section. This area lists the institutional controls from your selected framework version, such as CIS version 8.1.

The controls shown are based on the framework you have selected in the Assessments module. If you do not have access to the Assessments module, this section will not be shown.

History Tab

Click the History tab. The history log records every modification including changed ratings, dates, comments, and user attribution.

Attachments Tab

Click the Attachments tab. Evidence files supporting the control evaluation can be uploaded or managed within this section.

Click the upload area to add an evidence file. Uploaded files serve as audit evidence for the selected control safeguard.

If needed, click the Archive or Delete icon next to the uploaded file.
