Episode 55 — Monitor external changes like laws, vendors, and new AI capabilities (Task 6)
This episode focuses on Task 6 by showing how external changes should drive AI risk reassessment, because AAISM expects you to manage risk in a live environment where laws, vendor terms, threat activity, and AI capabilities can shift without your internal teams making any code change. You’ll learn how to track external triggers such as new regulatory requirements, updated contract language, vendor model behavior changes, platform logging or retention changes, and newly disclosed vulnerabilities that affect hosted services or integrations. We’ll walk through a scenario where a vendor announces a major model update and revised data handling practices, and you’ll practice deciding what to reassess first, how to validate the impact on confidentiality and compliance, and how to document decisions so leadership can defend continued use or a pause. Troubleshooting emphasizes avoiding blind trust in vendor statements by requiring evidence, aligning reassessment to governance routines, and updating controls and training when external changes alter real exposure.
