Legacy controls need explicit AI extensions covering assets, data flows, supplier changes, and accountable ownership.
The question
An employment-screening organization’s legacy security policy covers access control, encryption, and incident reporting for software. It does not address prompt data, model artifacts, retrieval sources, or supplier AI changes. What governance action best closes the identified gap?

- Require the supplier to certify compliance with the legacy policy annually.Supplier certification may provide limited evidence, but it cannot define internal AI assets, data flows, responsibilities, or change controls.
- Extend the policy with AI-specific assets, data flows, supplier changes, and ownership. ✓The gap concerns AI-specific assets, data flows, dependencies, and accountability, requiring explicit controls and assigned ownership.
- Add a model-accuracy review while retaining the current security policy.Accuracy review does not govern security-relevant AI assets, data flows, supplier changes, or accountable control ownership.
- Apply the existing software controls unchanged to the screening model.Existing controls provide a foundation but do not address prompt data, model artifacts, retrieval sources, or supplier changes.
The trap
Map the actual AI lifecycle and information flows against existing policy; do not assume software coverage is complete. How to remember it
Legacy controls need explicit AI extensions covering assets, data flows, supplier changes, and accountable ownership.
