AI Live
AI Security Maturity Model

Open edition →

One model, three editions

Phased by design

Every edition organizes controls into maturity phases so teams can start with quick wins and progress deliberately, never starting over.

Framework-aligned

Controls map to established frameworks — AWS CAF and Well-Architected, PCI DSS, OWASP LLM Top 10, and NIST — so the guidance is traceable.

Actionable on AWS

Each control pairs the "why" with practical AWS implementation guidance, validation checks, and a self-assessment you can track locally.
