NovaCompli and CognitiveView Join Forces to Transform AI Governance and Assurance in Australia

Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving from experimentation into core business operations. Organisations across Australia are deploying generative AI, AI agents and machine learning models across customer service, product development, analytics and internal operations. As adoption accelerates, boards, executives and risk leaders are asking harder questions. Are our AI systems safe and compliant? Do we understand how data is being used? Can we demonstrate credible evidence to regulators, customers and auditors?

To help organisations address these challenges with confidence, NovaCompli (www.novacompli.ai) has partnered with CognitiveView (www.cognitiveview.com), joining its ecosystem as an Implementation Partner for Australia. This partnership brings together AI governance, data protection and continuous assurance to support responsible and scalable AI adoption.

Bridging data governance and AI accountability

NovaCompli specialises in practical AI governance that connects business strategy, risk management and technology delivery. We help organisations design and implement governance frameworks aligned with ISO 42001, ISO 27001, SOC 2 and NIST guidance, ensuring AI risk is managed alongside existing security and compliance obligations.

A critical foundation of safe AI is strong data governance. Using Microsoft Purview, NovaCompli supports organisations to classify and protect sensitive information, manage data lineage, retention and access, and establish AI‑ready data foundations before information is used by AI models or agents. We also support continuous compliance using platforms such as Vanta and Drata, complemented by PECB‑backed training and certification pathways for ISO 27001 and ISO 42001.

CognitiveView complements this approach with an AI governance and assurance platform purpose‑built for monitoring AI systems in operation. CognitiveView provides an AI asset registry, policy and control workflows, continuous control monitoring for AI applications and agents, and an AI TrustCenter for transparent reporting to customers, regulators and internal stakeholders. Its TRACE‑RAI capability converts AI evaluation metrics such as drift, bias, toxicity and hallucination into clause‑mapped, audit‑ready evidence aligned with frameworks including ISO 42001, NIST AI RMF, the EU AI Act and emerging Australian AI safety expectations.

Together, NovaCompli and CognitiveView enable organisations to move from AI intent to AI assurance, supported by measurable, repeatable and defensible controls.

A best‑of‑breed AI governance stack

Through this partnership, NovaCompli delivers an integrated, best‑of‑breed AI governance and assurance stack:

• Microsoft Purview for AI‑ready data governance, classification and protection

• NovaCompli consulting services for AI governance frameworks, AI risk assessments, AI impact assessments and ISO 42001 readiness

• CognitiveView for AI asset inventory, continuous control monitoring, TRACE‑RAI evidence generation and AI TrustCenter reporting

• Vanta and Drata for broader ISO 27001 and SOC 2 continuous compliance and security control monitoring

This integrated approach provides Australian organisations with a clear governance architecture that secures data, governs AI systems and produces evidence that can be confidently presented to boards, regulators and customers.

Supporting responsible AI adoption in Australia

As government and industry guidance around AI safety continues to evolve, organisations need governance approaches that are adaptable and evidence‑driven. The NovaCompli and CognitiveView partnership is designed to support alignment with global standards while remaining practical for real‑world delivery.

If your organisation is exploring AI readiness, AI safety, data governance or Responsible AI compliance, NovaCompli can help you design and implement a governance and assurance approach that scales with your AI ambitions.
