Episode 60 — Embed vendor AI security requirements before procurement begins (Task 9)
This episode explains how to embed vendor AI security requirements early, because AAISM questions often test whether you can prevent downstream risk by shaping procurement, contracts, and onboarding criteria before a vendor is selected. You will learn how to define requirements around data handling, logging and audit access, incident notification, model update transparency, access controls, retention and deletion, and evidence delivery so you can verify controls rather than trusting marketing claims. We use scenarios like selecting a managed model provider or a third-party AI feature within a SaaS platform to show how requirements must reflect your risk posture and compliance duties. Troubleshooting focuses on late-stage vendor security reviews that become rubber stamps, missing contractual leverage for evidence and incident response, and unclear shared-responsibility boundaries that create blind spots after deployment.
