When AI gets ahead of you

Most organizations have an AI governance problem. Here's what that looks like:

Sensitive data gets entered without visibility or controls
Everyone assumes someone else is handling risk
Your staff could violate compliance requirements
There's no plan for how to respond if there's an issue

What this assessment evaluates

Our AI Risk Readiness Assessment is a structured engagement that evaluates your organization's AI use, governance posture, and regulatory exposure across four areas.

AI use

We identify which AI tools people are actually using — including tools IT never formally approved — and compare that against your policies.

Data governance

We evaluate whether your data handling practices are compatible with responsible AI use — including what data is being fed into AI tools, how it's stored, and whether current controls are sufficient to protect it.

Regulatory compliance

We benchmark your AI practices against the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and identify gaps in compliance readiness — giving you a clear picture of where your program stands.

Responsible practices

We assess whether your organization has the policies, oversight structures, and accountability frameworks in place to adopt AI responsibly as tools and regulations continue to evolve.

Takeaways from our AI risk assessment

Most organizations are making AI decisions without a clear picture of their exposure. It's a complex but solvable problem.

An AI-related risk summary

We'll assess what's actually in use, the data pathways involved, and the risks that should be addressed first.

A clear, 90-day action plan

Our findings will be translated into a roadmap prioritized by risk level and business impact.

Answers to tough questions

You'll get thorough documentation of how AI is being used and governed in your organization.

Frequently asked questions

AI governance is a new priority for most organizations — and the questions we hear reflect that.

Any organization where employees are using AI tools — whether formally adopted or not. If your team is using generative AI tools for drafting, summarizing, analyzing, or automating work, and you don't have formal policies governing that use, Marco's AI Risk Readiness Assessment is relevant to you.

That's exactly when this assessment is most valuable. Shadow AI — tools employees use without formal IT approval — is one of the most common sources of AI risk.

Marco's AI risk readiness assessment surfaces what's actually in use across your organization, not just what's been officially sanctioned.

At Marco, we ground this assessment in the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, which provides a structured approach to identifying, measuring, and managing AI risk. Where relevant, we'll also note exposure to emerging regulatory requirements that may affect your industry.

A cybersecurity assessment evaluates your security program — policies, configurations, and framework alignment.

Marco's AI Risk Readiness Assessment specifically evaluates how AI tools are being used in your organization, the governance structures around them, and your regulatory exposure.

The regulatory landscape is moving fast, but the foundational governance work Marco's assessment produces doesn't expire.

Documenting your AI use cases, establishing accountability structures, and benchmarking against NIST AI RMF gives you a baseline that makes adapting to new requirements significantly easier than starting from scratch.

Yes. One of the most consistent outcomes organizations report is having documented, defensible answers to questions from customers, insurers, and regulators about how AI is being used and governed.

Get ahead of your AI risk

AI is a powerful tool. And like any powerful tool, it needs to be used responsibly.
