Red Hat launches asago platform to automate AI governance

Red Hat announced the creation of the open‑source asago (AI Safety And Governance Orchestration) community, a project that turns AI governance policies into deployable, auditable controls. The platform automatically parses policy documents and maps requirements to standards such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, the OWASP LLM Top 10 and the EU AI Act, then generates use‑case‑specific safety tests, recommends guardrails and produces deployment configurations for hybrid‑cloud and Kubernetes environments. Each step records a traceable audit trail linking policy clauses to runtime safeguards. Asago is released under the Apache 2.0 licence and supports declarative configurations for Kubernetes, Terraform and Ansible. Contributors include IBM Research, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Brave Software, MIT Lincoln Laboratory, The Alan Turing Institute and several academic partners, and the project is still seeking additional participants.
