The AI Governance Authority

Stop Treating Governance Like Red Tape

Governance isn't documentation—it's enforceable architecture. We convert NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001, GDPR, and the EU AI Act from PDFs into runtime gates, contract enforcement, and policy-as-code that prevents violations before they happen.

⚡ WHY WE'RE THE AUTHORITY

Governance as Enforceable Architecture

We don't write compliance reports. We build systems where policy violations fail fast in CI, not months later in an audit. Here's the technical foundation that makes us different.

NIST AI RMF ISO/IEC 42001 GDPR/CPRA EU AI Act OWASP LLM Top-10 OAuth 2.0 mTLS
🏗️

Contracts That Machines Enforce

We implement OpenAPI/OAS specifications as runtime gates. Schema Registry (Avro/JSON/Protobuf) turns data contracts into blocking validation. Your CI fails on drift—not your customers.

OpenAPI 3.1 Schema Registry Avro/Protobuf Contract Testing
🧠

Policy as Code (Not PDFs)

Open Policy Agent (OPA) externalizes every authorization decision. One policy language enforced across microservices, gateways, pipelines, and Kubernetes. Write once, enforce everywhere.

OPA/Rego Policy Engines Decision Logs Runtime Gates
🔐

Identity & Transport You Can Trust

OAuth 2.0/OIDC with JWT access tokens. OAuth 2.0 mTLS (RFC 8705) binds tokens to client certificates—preventing token replay. Standards-based, not hopeful practices.

OAuth 2.0 OIDC JWT mTLS RFC 8705
🛡️

AI-Native Threat Mitigation

We architect against OWASP LLM Top-10: prompt injection, insecure output, training-data poisoning, excessive agency. Gateway-level guardrails with PII redaction, content filters, and usage caps.

Prompt Isolation Output Sandboxing PII Redaction Rate Limiting
📊

Evidence & Audit-Ready Infrastructure

Model cards, data lineage, DPIAs, incident runbooks, and signed attestations from CI. Everything tied to EU AI Act technical documentation and NIST AI RMF requirements.

⚖️

Regulatory Compliance Operationalized

GDPR principles (lawfulness, minimization, purpose limitation) mapped to runtime controls. EU AI Act risk-based obligations converted into deployment gates. FTC enforcement precedent integrated.

The DriftForce Consultation Process

From chaos to control in 90 days. Here's exactly what happens when you partner with us.

1

Discovery & Risk Assessment

Week 1-2 | Complimentary for Qualified Orgs

Deep-dive technical audit of your AI/data infrastructure. We map NIST AI RMF functions (GOVERN, MAP, MEASURE, MANAGE) to your systems, identify OWASP LLM Top-10 vulnerabilities, and assess GDPR/EU AI Act exposure. You get a 30-page technical risk report with prioritized fixes.

Architecture Design & Policy Definition

Week 3-5 | $5K-15K Investment

We design your governance architecture: OpenAPI contracts, Schema Registry setup, OPA policy framework, OAuth 2.0/mTLS identity layer, and LLM guardrails. Every component maps to ISO/IEC 42001 controls and EU AI Act technical documentation requirements.

Implementation & Integration

Week 6-10 | Enterprise Pricing

We deploy contract enforcement in your CI/CD, stand up OPA gateways, implement OAuth 2.0 mTLS, and activate LLM guardrails. Every control is tested against attack scenarios. Your team gets hands-on training on maintaining the system.
