CISM MEETS AI: GOVERNING INTELLIGENCE IN THE AGE OF AUTOMATION
International Research Journal of Modernization in Engineering Technology and Science · 2025
As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to advance and integrate into critical infrastructures, its intersection with Certified Information Security Management (CISM) frameworks has become essential for maintaining robust governance.The fusion of AI and automation technologies introduces new dimensions of opportunity and risk, reshaping how information systems are protected, monitored, and governed.This paper explores the evolving landscape of AI-driven automation through the lens of information security governance.It highlights the role of AI in enhancing decision-making, enforcing policy compliance, and automating cybersecurity responses.At the same time, it addresses ethical, legal, and operational challenges-ranging from data privacy and algorithmic accountability to explainability and human oversight.This study aims to guide security professionals in developing effective governance strategies that align with emerging AI capabilities while preserving humancentric values in automated systems.
