Govern AI use with clear controls and practical assurance

Governance is where AI initiatives either become durable or drift into unmanaged risk. I help organisations put in place the controls, evidence and operating practices needed for Copilot, agents and enterprise AI use cases.

What this service addresses

  • AI risk assessment and prioritisation
  • Governance design for Microsoft Purview, Entra and Microsoft 365
  • Identity, permissions, data access and agent lifecycle controls

Common challenges

  • Sensitive data is exposed more easily than expected
  • AI and agent use cases lack ownership, review or evidence
  • Security and compliance teams need a practical model to assess AI risk

Delivered outcomes

  • Risk observations and governance recommendations
  • Control design for Copilot, agents and data handling
  • A practical operating model for review, approval and oversight

Relevant technologies

Microsoft 365, Microsoft Purview, Microsoft Entra, Microsoft Defender, identity governance and secure collaboration design are all part of the assessment and design process.

The aim is to make AI adoption manageable: visible risks, clear guardrails and repeatable governance that supports business use without creating unnecessary friction.
