AI Governance for the pace of AI adoption
AI Compass unifies shadow AI detection, system registration, risk classification, and governance maturity scoring. Every AI system in your environment gets inventoried against EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO 42001.
AI Compass
Layer 3 (Code Security): AI in the codebase. Connect GitHub Advanced Security →
Layer 4 (Endpoint Security): AI desktop applications. Connect CrowdStrike →
Measures how completely your AI environment is documented in Glance.

Breakdown across 6 governance pillars
Discover shadow AI. Register every system. Govern the lifecycle.
AI adoption is outpacing governance. Every week, new copilots, agents, and embedded AI features land inside your environment, most without IT or security oversight. Traditional GRC tools were not built for this. Glance's AI Governance module was.
AI Compass continuously scans your identity providers, CASB, code repositories, and endpoint agents to discover every AI system in use. Each system gets classified by EU AI Act risk tier and scored across a 6-dimension maturity model.

What's inside AI Governance
Shadow AI discovery
Continuous detection across CASB, identity providers, and endpoint connectors. Every unsanctioned AI tool surfaces within hours of first use.
AI system registry
Register every production AI system with risk tier, data classification, owner, and impact assessment. Single source of truth for auditors.
Governance program maturity
6-dimension maturity scoring (Governance, Inventory, Risk, Compliance, Monitoring, Ethics) with trend tracking and benchmark comparison.
EU AI Act + NIST AI RMF mapping
Use cases pre-mapped to EU AI Act Articles 9, 10, 14, 22, 61 and NIST AI RMF Govern, Map, Measure, Manage functions.
Agentic AI controls
Register agents, define tool permissions, set escalation rules, and quarantine misbehaving agents in real time.
Policy generation
Policy types generated from substantive templates: acceptable use, data handling, incident response, vendor AI management.
Concrete outputs your team, your board, and your auditors can use.
Every ai governance engagement produces evidence-backed deliverables pulled from live Glance data.
- Complete inventory of sanctioned and shadow AI systems
- EU AI Act risk classification for every AI system
- NIST AI RMF and ISO 42001 maturity score with trend
- Impact assessments for high-risk and unacceptable-risk systems
- Board-ready AI risk briefing pulled from live data
Organizations where AI adoption has outpaced governance. Enterprises with LLM copilots in production, embedded AI in SaaS tools, agentic AI pilots, or upcoming EU AI Act obligations.
Advisory services that run inside AI Governance
Glance modules are powered by Z Cyber advisory engagements. Your team gets the platform; your advisor runs the program inside it.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does shadow AI discovery actually work?
Glance connects to your CASB, identity provider, endpoint telemetry, and code repositories. When a user connects to an unsanctioned AI API, logs into a new AI tool, or installs an AI browser extension, AI Compass detects it and registers it automatically with a risk score.
Do I need to replace my existing GRC tool?
No. Glance complements existing GRC by adding AI-specific governance that traditional tools do not cover: shadow discovery, agent registries, EU AI Act mapping, and NIST AI RMF scoring. We can export evidence to your existing GRC system.
What frameworks does AI Compass support?
EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, GDPR Article 22, SEC AI disclosure guidance, and sector-specific frameworks like the OCC AI guidance for banking.
How is this different from a shadow IT discovery tool?
Shadow IT tools find unsanctioned SaaS. AI Compass finds and classifies unsanctioned AI, a distinct problem with distinct risks (data exfiltration to training sets, model hallucination liability, EU AI Act compliance). It also governs what you sanction.
