- Red Hat’s recently launched open-source project 'asago' aims to automate AI governance in enterprises, including healthcare.
- Asago aligns AI policies with standards like NIST AI RMF, OWASP LLM Top 10, and the EU AI Act using IBM’s AI Risk Atlas.

On August 18, 2026, the National Law Review unveiled a video series titled Thought Leaders in Health Law Video Series | Enterprise AI: What Health Care Organizations Need to Know About Governance, Compliance, and Vendor Risk. The series features experts providing practical insights on navigating the unique governance and compliance challenges posed by AI adoption in healthcare settings.
The healthcare sector, driven by AI’s potential to improve patient outcomes and operational efficiencies, must also contend with complex regulatory and vendor risk landscapes. Legal and legal ops teams within these organizations require focused guidance to manage these risks effectively.
Complementing this educational effort, Red Hat announced an open-source initiative called asago (AI Safety And Governance Orchestration) on August 4, 2026. This project aims to accelerate and automate the implementation of corporate and regulatory AI policies, facilitating safer and faster AI deployment in enterprises including healthcare organizations.
Asago’s design enables it to interpret AI governance policies and align them with recognized frameworks such as the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, OWASP LLM Top 10, and the EU AI Act, leveraging IBM’s AI Risk Atlas technology.
Stuart Battersby, AI safety and model evaluation architect at Red Hat, emphasized the collaborative nature of asago: "The asago project is a true collaborative, open source endeavour bringing together stakeholders from the technology industry, academia and government." The project counts support from major players including Microsoft, IBM Research, the Alan Turing Institute, and Brave Software.
