can answer basic questions about how to do it safely. At the Center for I

how CIS stood up an AI governance board and a technical subcommittee\, de
ployed enterprise AI tooling to staff\, and worked through the security an

higher education\, the stakes are distinctive. Research\, administrative\,
and IT environments each carry different data sensitivities and risk tole

Most organizations are being asked to adopt A
I faster than they can answer basic questions about how to do it safely. A
t the Center for Internet Security\, we chose to build our AI program gove
rnance first\, before scaling use across the organization. This session wa
lks through that journey candidly\, including the questions we got right e
arly\, the ones we underestimated\, and the places where our first plan ne
eded real adjustment.
Brian Calkin\, CIS Chief Technology
and Innovation Officer\, will share how CIS stood up an AI governance boar
d and a technical subcommittee\, deployed enterprise AI tooling to staff\,
and worked through the security and data questions that surfaced along th
e way. What data can these tools touch? How do we vet vendors? Who reviews
an agent before it acts on its own? How do we keep cost and sprawl under
control? The talk focuses on what actually worked\, what we changed\, and
what we are still figuring out.
For higher education\, the
stakes are distinctive. Research\, administrative\, and IT environments e
ach carry different data sensitivities and risk tolerances\, and scaling A
I across all three without a shared governance foundation invites trouble.
Attendees will leave with a practical starting framework they can adapt\,
a set of questions worth answering before broad rollout\, and a clear vie
w of the tradeoffs from an organization living them now.
