# Reviewing AI governance posture and compliance status

The Risk & Compliance tab under **Govern** displays regulatory classification, risk posture, and compliance information for AI assets.

## Overview of Govern

Use the **Risk & Compliance** tab under **Govern** in AI Control Tower to monitor governance activities across your AI portfolio. Review AI asset classifications, identify risk and compliance concerns, track governance work, and investigate issues that require attention.

From here, you can:

-   Review and act on top recommendations
-   Review regulatory risk classification
-   Track compliance score and compliance posture
-   Review AI risk posture, including aggregated risk score and the risk heat map
-   Monitor cases, issues, and governance actions
-   View and manage business application associations with AI systems. For more information, see [Associate a business application with an AI system](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/intelligent-experiences/disc-asset-associate-business-application.md)

\[Omitted image "aict-govern-risk-compliance-tab.png"\] Alt text: Risk & Compliance tab under Govern showing compliance posture and risk posture sections with analytics widgets for regulatory classification, compliance scores, and risk metrics.

The page is divided into the following components:

-   Compliance posture: Monitor compliance of implemented controls and regulatory risk across the AI portfolio.
-   Risk posture: Monitor inherent and residual risk across the AI portfolio.

## Compliance posture

The widgets under compliance posture display the top action items to execute and track the risk classification and compliance score of AI systems and controls. Each widget reflects the active filter state. View details for each metric area by selecting the arrow for each metric. Select an individual component on the widget to view underlying assets.

</table>## Actionable intelligence insights

The **Your top recommendations** widget is powered by two AI-generated insights, Stalled Lifecycle Tasks and Significant Issues, that evaluate your AI portfolio and surface governance work that needs attention. AI-generated insights may not reflect all relevant context — review recommendations before acting on them. For what each insight identifies, how it's determined, and how to act on its recommendations, see [Detecting governance insights](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/intelligent-experiences/gov-airc-insight-detection.md).

## Risk posture

The widgets under risk posture provide a summary view of the inherent and residual risk across the AI portfolio. Use the drop-down to filter the assets into **AI System**, **AI Model**, and **Dataset**. To view detailed information about the risk and compliance posture, select **Take me there**. This opens the AI Risk and Compliance Workspace.
