Governing AI across a healthcare environment

Two clinicians reviewing an AI assistant on a monitor

1The challenge

A healthcare organization in the United States had AI spreading across internal applications, cloud services, identity systems and external model providers, with no dependable inventory of what existed or who owned it.

Visibility was only half the problem. In healthcare, every AI system also has to be checked against sensitive-data boundaries, access controls and the organization's own governance rules, and there was no consistent way to do that.

2The solution

An AI security and posture system built around the organization's environment and its governance requirements. It discovers AI-related assets and activity, records ownership, assesses risk and posture, and shows what each system can reach.

We built it for the organization's internal use.

3What the system does

  • Discovers AI systems and activity across the platforms the organization already runs
  • Records who owns each system and what information it can access
  • Assesses each system against the organization's own governance rules
  • Carries a review from request through to sign-off
  • Tracks what needs remediation and who is doing it

4What changed

The organization could see which AI systems touched sensitive information, and check each one against its own governance rules.

Before that, the inventory was incomplete and the checks were done case by case, so the same question could get a different answer depending on who asked it.

5What we did not finish

The first release did not cover everything. Formal intake and registration, deeper model and dataset scanning, and several platform integrations were left for a later release rather than shipped half-built.
