Governance-as-a-Service (GaaS)
Operate. Assure. Sustain Governance at Enterprise Scale.
What Is Governance-as-a-Service (GaaS)?
Governance-as-a-Service (GaaS) is a managed, ongoing service that enables organizations to operate, monitor, and continuously improve their data, AI, and regulatory governance frameworks over time.
At SentinelX Digital, GaaS extends the value of your governance foundations by providing continuous oversight, assurance, and operational support — ensuring governance remains effective as regulations evolve, AI systems scale, and business priorities change.
This service focuses on governance operations, not one-off advisory.
Move from Governance Design to Governance in Action
Many organizations successfully design governance frameworks — but struggle to sustain them.
Common challenges include:
- Governance fatigue after initial implementation
- Lack of dedicated ownership and capacity
- Controls degrading as systems and models evolve
- Reactive responses to audits and regulatory change
Governance-as-a-Service ensures governance is actively operated, monitored, and reinforced — not left as documentation.
