The NIST AI Risk Management Framework gives leaders a common language for AI risk. Here's how to apply its four functions without drowning in process.
Govern and map
Set accountability and map where AI is used and what could go wrong — the foundation for every other control.
Measure and manage
Evaluate AI systems, monitor them in production, and manage risk continuously. Measurement is what makes governance real.
Make it operational
Turn the framework into golden paths, policy, and tooling so risk management is built in, not bolted on.
