EC-Council introduces ADG AI Framework and self-assessment tool to help companies with secure scaling and governance of AI
EC-Council has launched its Adopt. Defend. Govern. (ADG) AI Framework along with a self-assessment tool designed to help enterprises safely scale and govern artificial intelligence implementations. The framework was developed in collaboration with security and technology experts from major corporations including Citi, JPMorgan Chase, Microsoft, KPMG, Deloitte, NTT Data, GE Healthcare, GlobalLogic, Prudential, and Salesforce. The ADG framework provides organizations with a unified operating model structured around three core pillars, 12 minimum controls, and nine governance areas. The framework has been designed to align with key regulatory and standards frameworks including the EU AI Act, ISO/IEC 42001, and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF). This compliance-focused approach addresses the growing need for structured AI governance as organizations face increasing regulatory scrutiny and risk management requirements for AI deployments.
Why It Matters
As AI adoption accelerates across enterprises, the lack of standardized governance frameworks has become a critical gap that exposes organizations to regulatory, security, and operational risks. EC-Council's ADG framework addresses this by providing a structured approach that aligns with emerging global AI regulations, potentially becoming a de facto standard for AI risk management in enterprise environments.
