AI governance · strategy, policy and security

Use AI with confidence: choose the right uses, set the limits and keep watch.

Responsible AI is a set of decisions, not a document: which uses are worth doing, what data may go where, who may see what, how outputs are tested, and who is accountable when something is wrong. We help you make those decisions, put the controls in place (access, data boundaries, testing, monitoring and human oversight) and keep them working as the tools change.

Capabilities

What AI Strategy, Governance & Security covers

  • Strategy and use-case selection

    Choose the uses worth pursuing, in the order that makes sense, and decide which to decline.

  • Policy and accountability

    A short, usable policy, and a named owner for each use of AI in the business.

  • Data boundaries and privacy

    Decide what data may be sent to which AI service, and design the systems to keep to it.

  • Access control

    AI that inherits the permissions of the people it works for, and no more.

  • Testing and evaluation

    Test sets and review before release, so quality is measured rather than assumed.

  • Monitoring and review

    Watch for errors, drift and misuse after release, and review the register regularly.

Is it the right one?

Where it fits, and where it does not

We would rather you choose the right thing than the one we happen to be discussing.

A strong fit when

  • Staff already use public AI tools, and leadership wants to know what is being shared.
  • You are about to put AI in front of customers or into financial processes.
  • Auditors, clients or regulators are asking how you control AI.
  • You want a consistent way to say yes or no to AI ideas.

Look at something else when

  • You have no plans for AI yet: a short briefing may be all you need for now.
  • You need legal advice on a specific regulation: we work alongside your legal advisers and do not replace them.
  • You want a formal certification: we can help you prepare, but certification comes from the certifying body.

How we deliver

How Abrimatt delivers AI Governance

Every engagement runs in phases, so the business sees progress and risks surface early. The timescale for each phase is set after an assessment, not before.

  1. Review

    See where AI is already used, what data is involved and where the exposure is.

  2. Decide

    Agree the principles, the uses to pursue and the ones to decline, with leadership.

  3. Write the policy

    A short policy people will read, with a register of approved uses and their owners.

  4. Put the controls in

    Set up access, data boundaries, logging and the approval steps in the systems themselves.

  5. Test

    Build the test sets and review process that each use must pass before release.

  6. Keep watch

    Monitor after release, review the register on a schedule, and update the controls as the tools change.

Questions we are asked

AI Governance: questions and answers

Do we need a policy before we start with AI?

A short one, yes. It does not need to be long, but people need to know what they may use AI for, what data must stay out, and who to ask. We can help you write one that is used rather than filed.

Does this cover tools like ChatGPT that staff already use?

Yes. Unapproved use of public tools is one of the most common exposures. We help you understand what is used, decide what is allowed, and offer approved alternatives so that people have a safe way to get the benefit.

Are you giving legal advice?

No. We help with the practical side: the decisions, the controls and the records. For questions of law in your sector, we work alongside your own legal advisers.
