AI vendor decisions are split between access evidence and consumption evidence.
Device context protects the security review while cost ownership protects the finance review.
Who you’d be doing this for
“Finance asked me who owns the Cursor spike, and I had three different answers.”
Jokha Twahirwa · IT Security Manager
Owns application governance for an enterprise customer evaluating a shared process for AI vendors.
What is at stake
Security and finance leave AI vendor reviews with different owners and different actions. You must decide what evidence belongs in one repeatable review without turning it into another dashboard.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- finance actionability vs security evidence
- fast pilot setup vs reusable deployment pattern
- device context vs application-level certainty
- shared ownership vs functional decision rights
