The Practical Guide to AIUC-1 Compliance

AI agents are moving from pilots to production, but enterprise procurement can't keep pace — buyers can't validate that an agent is safe, secure, and governed, so security reviews stall. AIUC-1 is the standard built to close that gap: agent-specific, testable, and certifiable.

Whether you're an AI company trying to clear enterprise security review or an enterprise governing the agents you build and buy, this guide gives you an AIUC-1 program you can actually run.

What you'll learn:

  • What AIUC-1 requires — the six domains and its 50+ requirements, with core and supplemental controls

  • AIUC-1 vs. ISO 42001 and NIST AI RMF — where broad governance ends and testable certification begins

  • How certification works — red-teaming, accredited auditors, and the insurance it unlocks (up to $50M)

  • Your phase-by-phase roadmap — scope, implement, red-team, certify, and maintain

  • How Drata keeps assurance continuous, not point-in-time — as the first platform with native AIUC-1 support

An AIUC-1 certificate answers the security-review question instead of restating intent — and turns AI assurance into a sales-cycle asset. This guide shows you how to earn it, and how to hold it without rebuilding evidence every cycle.
