Something big is coming on June 16.

AI is reshaping how businesses operate, compete, and grow. But here is the question most organizations are not asking loudly enough: Is AI working for you, or quietly working against you?

On June 16, Alexandra Jorissen, European Business Development Director at identifAI, takes a sharp, business-centric look at the dual reality of AI adoption. Where does it deliver genuine value? Where does it introduce hidden risk? And what does responsible, governance-driven AI adoption look like in practice?

This session is built for leaders who want clarity, not hype.

Defending AI cannot rely on traditional controls alone.

Organizations need a way to test AI systems before deployment, monitor them during runtime, and respond when AI behaves unexpectedly.

EC-Council’s proprietary Adopt. Defend. Govern. (ADG) AI Framework brings that missing layer into focus.

Explore the framework: https://bit.ly/4dCLcnb

Through its DEFEND pillar, the framework helps organizations strengthen AI security with evidence-based controls, continuous monitoring, failure-mode testing, and AI-specific incident response.

AI readiness is not just about using AI.

It is about being prepared to defend it.

06/02/2026

AI governance cannot stay on paper. It has to work in practice.

EC-Council’s proprietary Adopt. Defend. Govern. (ADG) AI Framework helps organizations turn AI governance from a broad intention into an organization-wide operational discipline. Explore this framework here: https://bit.ly/4dCLcnb

It is a practitioner-led modular framework for designing, implementing, and governing AI stacks through defined minimum controls to establish strong foundations. The framework gives your organization:

✦ 9 Governance Surfaces to know exactly what to govern

✦ 12 Minimum Controls to support governance with documented proof

✦ 4 Harm Classes to manage the full risk picture

✦ 9 Deployment Pattern Overlays so that governance adapts to your stack

✦ A 4-Phase Roadmap from foundation to maturity

Govern AI with proof, not promises.

Your next must-attend session just got a date. Circle June 17 on your calendar.

Machine learning models are only as trustworthy as the data they learn from, and that data is increasingly under attack.

On June 17, Jason Ross, Product Security Principal at Salesforce, brings his frontline experience in adversarial AI testing to one of the most underestimated threats in enterprise security: data poisoning attacks against machine learning models and agentic AI systems.

Unlike traditional cyberattacks, data poisoning operates silently within the AI lifecycle, bypassing perimeter defenses and evading conventional security tools. A single compromised dataset can ripple across multiple models, leading to flawed predictions, regulatory exposure, and erosion of trust.

This session cuts through the complexity and equips you with practical, actionable strategies to defend your AI systems from the inside out.

The gap between AI ambition and AI accountability is widening. EC-Council’s proprietary ADG AI Framework is here to close this gap.

Explore the Framework: https://bit.ly/4dCLcnb

The ADG AI Framework is a practitioner-led modular framework for designing, implementing, and governing AI stacks through defined minimum controls to establish strong foundations.

It is not a replacement for ISO or NIST. In fact, it is a bridge to get there, and a governance floor to stand on while you do.

• 12 minimum controls
• 9 governance surfaces
• 4 harm classes
• 9 deployment pattern overlays
• 3 autonomy tiers
• A neutral 30/60/90-day AI Readiness Roadmap

Make AI your strength, not a liability.

8 out of 10 executives are unable to confirm if their AI is audit ready. Can you? EC-Council just introduced the ADG AI Framework, a practitioner-led modular framework for designing, implementing, and governing AI stacks through defined minimum controls to establish strong foundations.

Explore the Framework: https://bit.ly/4dCLcnb

The liability isn't coming. It's here.

EC-Council's ADG Framework gives enterprises a concrete path forward:

✓ 12 minimum controls, so you govern with proof, not promises
✓ 9 governance surfaces, so nothing in your AI stack remains unaccounted
✓ A 30/60/90-day AI Readiness Roadmap, because governance shouldn't take 18 months to start

Practitioner-led. Modular. Mapped to the EU AI Act, ISO 42001, and NIST AI RMF.

Govern with proof, not promises.

Ungoverned AI isn't a future risk, but a present liability. EC-Council introduced the ADG AI Framework, a practitioner-led modular framework for designing, implementing, and governing AI stacks through defined minimum controls to establish strong foundations.

Explore the Framework: https://bit.ly/4dCLcnb

Not a checklist; an operating model.

• 12 minimum controls
• 9 governance surfaces tracing every point from first prompt to audit log
• 4 harm classes covering confidentiality loss, integrity failure, availability impact, and accountability gaps

And it maps to NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and the EU AI Act.

It is built with inputs from the AI Advisory Board members representing Fortune 500 and global enterprises, including JPMorgan Chase, Microsoft, Salesforce, Deloitte, KPMG, and more.

If AI is in your stack, governance has to be too.

AI is transforming enterprise operations, but with that transformation comes a rapidly evolving risk landscape that traditional security models were never built to handle.

On June 15, Bob Fabien Zinga, former CISO at Santa Clara University and Information Warfare Commander in the U.S. Navy Reserve, brings a CISO's real-world perspective to one of today's most pressing challenges: how do security leaders govern, secure, and operationalize AI without slowing innovation?

From data poisoning and model manipulation to regulatory compliance and ethical risk, this session delivers a governance-first framework that security leaders can put to work immediately.

EC-Council's Adopt. Defend. Govern. (ADG) AI Framework was shaped by the people who lead AI in the real world.

EC-Council thanks the members of the AI Advisory Board, whose insights, challenges, and real-world experience helped shape every pillar of this framework. Because of their contributions, the ADG Framework does not just define governance; it helps operationalize it.

Explore the framework here: https://bit.ly/4dCLcnb

The ADG AI Framework is a practitioner-led modular framework for designing, implementing, and governing AI stacks through defined minimum controls to establish strong foundations.

The framework maps:
• 9 governance surfaces
• 12 minimum controls
• 4 harm classes
• 4 industry threat catalogs
• 9 deployment pattern overlays
• 3 autonomy tiers

Not aspirational guidance, but audit-ready proof.

To our AI Advisory Board: thank you for helping us build the framework the industry needed.
