Where AI APMA Meets the ECB Mandate
AI APMA assesses the key areas the ECB expects institutions to strengthen ahead of its October 31 AI cybersecurity deadline, helping you identify gaps and prioritize the actions needed to meet it.
Vulnerability Management
How quickly you identify, prioritize, and remediate critical vulnerabilities.
ECB Requirement: accelerate patch management at scale
Supply Chain Security
How well you govern open-source, third-party, and AI dependencies.
ECB Requirement: strengthen supply chain assurance
Governance and Accountability
How clearly you define AI security policies, oversight, and ownership.
ECB Requirement: establish board-owned oversight
People and Awareness
How well you prepare your team through security training and guidance.
ECB Requirement: build organizational resilience
Action Plan and Audit Readiness
How effectively you turn results into a documented, prioritized action plan.
ECB Requirement: meet the October 31 action plan deadline
Why AI AppSec Maturity Matters Now
AI is accelerating software development, and changing the cybersecurity threat landscape at the same time. The 2026 Future of Application Security Report uncovered that 96% of organizations now use AI in their applications, and AI writes nearly half of all new code. But 75% of organizations still knowingly ship vulnerable code. Last year, the number of vulnerabilities found jumped up 76%, while the number actually fixed dropped by 46%. This is the gap driving the ECB’s mandate. It’s also the same gap the AI APMA is built to measure.
