AI usage policy checklist: what to decide before you buy a control
In short
A GenAI security control enforces a policy; it does not write one. This checklist covers the decisions to make first: which tools are approved, which data may go where, what agents may do, who reviews new tools, and how people get help. Tick items as you go; your ticks stay in this browser only.

How does this connect to the quiz?
Your answers to the scope, data and enforcement items feed the quiz's questions on worries, first response and where traffic may be inspected. Take the quiz once the policy has a first draft. Take the quiz.
Questions
Do I need a policy before a product?
Yes, in most cases. A control needs rules to enforce, and people need to know the rules before they meet a block.
