AI Governance, Risk & Security — Certification Examination (2026)

This is a formal, standards-aligned certification examination covering AI governance, regulatory compliance, generative AI risk, and agentic AI security. It is built directly against primary source documents: NIST AI RMF 1.0 (AI 100-1, January 2023), NIST AI 600-1 (July 2024), the EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689), ISO/IEC 42001:2023, the OWASP State of Agentic AI Security and Governance v2.01 (June 2026), and the Cisco State of AI Security 2026 report.

The examination consists of 55 single-best-answer questions across four weighted domains, with a recommended time of 2 hours 45 minutes and a passing score of 75% (41 of 55 correct). Every question is paired with a full rationale explaining why the correct answer is right and why the closest distractor falls short, so the examination doubles as a structured review of the underlying frameworks.

Examination blueprint — four domains, weighted by question count:

• AI Governance Frameworks (NIST AI RMF, ISO/IEC 42001) — 16 questions, 29%
• Regulatory Compliance (EU AI Act 2024/1689) — 10 questions, 18%
• Generative AI Risk (NIST AI 600-1) — 11 questions, 20%
• Agentic AI Security (OWASP, Cisco, NIST) — 18 questions, 33%

Format: single best answer from five options (A through E) per question. No marks are deducted for incorrect answers. Several questions are scenario-based, with all necessary context stated in the question itself.
