For CISOs, security heads and AI risk owners

Score your GCC’s security and AI-governance readiness in two minutes

HQ will audit your India centre against its own control set, and every AI system the centre deploys will need an audit trail. This self-assessment shows where you stand and what to fix first.

  • HQ controls expected on day one, with none of the tooling or people.
  • Privileged access and DLP as the first audit findings.
  • AI use spreading faster than model access policies.
  • Certification evidence assembled manually before each audit.

Fix first

    On a 30-minute call we turn this into a security launch package plan mapped to your HQ control framework.

    Assumptions and sources

    Twelve controls that HQ security and audit teams most often expect from a new India centre, plus the AI-governance controls that become unavoidable once the centre ships AI. "Yes" scores 2, "Partly" 1 and "No" 0. Each control is weighted by how often its absence turns into an audit finding or an incident in a new GCC, which is our judgement from practice.

    Bands: below 40 exposed, 40–69 partial, 70–89 audit-ready with gaps, 90+ strong. This is a self-assessment for prioritisation, not an audit.
