What Is AI Governance?

This document is an explanatory/marketing brief on AI governance, outlining a three‑pillar approach (visibility, control, governance), the four operational surfaces where AI must be governed (agents, cloud, applications, endpoints), common misconceptions, and why governance matters—citing regulatory drivers (EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001), market risks (data leakage, adversarial threats, shadow AI), and operational cost considerations; it emphasizes on‑device AI management for Apple platforms and the need for continuous, auditable controls rather than one‑time configurations.
