AI0-001 AI Security, Ethics and Governance Practice Question
Which AI governance framework is specifically designed by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to help organizations manage AI risks?
⚠ Common exam trap
The AI0-001 exam often tests candidates by listing well-known frameworks or regulations (like ISO/IEC 27001 or GDPR) that are related to security or privacy but are not AI-specific, leading candidates to confuse general governance with the NIST AI RMF.
