01 / The reality

Three questions land on your desk this quarter.

01 / The audit

Your SOC 2 auditor wants the AI control.

CC6.1 logical access. CC7.2 monitoring. CC8.1 change management. The auditor is asking how AI tool usage is governed. You need evidence, not a screenshot. By Friday.

02 / The customer

An enterprise customer just sent their security questionnaire.

Question 47: "Please list all AI sub-processors used in the delivery of services to us." You have 72 hours to answer or the contract slips a quarter.

03 / The board

Your CEO got asked at the last board dinner.

"What's our AI policy?" The board chair is half a regulator now. The answer "we're working on it" buys you exactly one quarter, then a board resolution lands.

02 / What you actually need

The list of things a security-vendor questionnaire asks for.

Identity

SAML SSO + SCIM

Okta or Entra. Single sign-on for admins. SCIM provisioning means joiners covered on day one, leavers off in seconds. Configured as part of your Fleet engagement.

Devices

MDM-deployed

Force-install via Jamf, Intune, or Kandji. One-click in your MDM. Five minutes to full coverage.

Logging

SIEM-routed

Stream every policy event into Splunk or Datadog in real time. Use the searches and dashboards your team already trusts. Configured as part of your Fleet engagement.

Evidence

GRC-pre-mapped

Vanta, Drata, OneTrust. Northbeams is an evidence source. The auditor gets shadow-AI coverage without you screenshotting anything. Configured as part of your Fleet engagement.

Coding agents

MCP Gateway

In-path proxy for the MCP servers your developers wire to Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Claude Code. Per-tool allow / warn / block. Argument values stay on the laptop. MDM-rolled via NBM_MCP_GATEWAY=1.

03 / Three numbers that close the audit conversation

What you walk into the meeting with.

27

AI tools active in a typical 50 person company. Your number is higher.
