AI Governance: From Checklist to Compliance

AI systems must align with ethics, privacy, security, and regulation. A governance checklist helps organizations track progress across regulatory compliance (HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, SOC 2, ISO 27001), bias and fairness, transparency, and risk management. Without a structured approach, gaps emerge late—during audits or incidents—when remediation is costly.

Industry-specific requirements vary: financial services face model risk management and fair lending; healthcare must address HIPAA and clinical validation; legal and government have additional transparency and accountability needs. This checklist maps items to regulations so you can prioritize and demonstrate progress to auditors and boards.

Who This Tool Is For

Chief Risk Officers, compliance leads, and AI governance teams in regulated industries. Use it to assess governance maturity, map requirements to regulations, and prioritize remediation. Especially relevant for financial services, healthcare, legal, and government.

Run the checklist before audits, during AI system reviews, or as part of annual governance cycles. Track completion over time and use the PDF for board and regulator reporting. Contact Infinidatum for more.
