AI governance becomes harder when organizations have to translate requirements into controls, accountability, and evidence that can actually operate across the enterprise.

That is the problem ADG Framework 2.0 is designed to address.

Built around ADOPT · DEFEND · GOVERN, ADG 2.0 provides an operating model that brings policy, controls, and evidence together — so governance can continue as AI systems are built, deployed, and operated.

The framework is open and free to use, giving organizations a practical foundation for moving from AI governance on paper to AI governance in operation.

ADG Framework 2.0 is now live. Link in comments.

As AI moves from experimentation into real workflows, governance needs to operate across the systems, decisions, controls, and evidence that support AI in production.

ADG 2.0 brings this into one operating model through:

12 control families | 180+ controls | 720+ requirements

The framework defines what may run, keeps AI within its operating envelope at runtime, and establishes how governance decisions and controls can be proven with evidence.

ADG 2.0 is built as an open AI governance framework for the agentic era, helping organizations move from AI governance on paper to AI governance in operation.

Explore the framework and see how ADG 2.0 can support your AI governance journey.

Agentic AI operates across authority, context, memory, tools, output, and evidence.

Built around three pillars:
ADOPT · DEFEND · GOVERN

AI governance has to operate continuously. When an agent can read, decide, and act, organizations need controls around authority, permissions, accountability, and evidence.

Who controls what the agent is allowed to do?
