AI Governance for energy and critical infrastructure – overview, ownership and traceability | Mynder

The governance layer for your AI agents, whoever built them. Map AI across tools, follow up suppliers and ownership, and report to the board, regulators and auditors.

The AI agents do the work. Mynder gives you control.

In oil, energy and critical infrastructure, AI is being used for reporting, analysis and decision support. Management, the board and regulators expect the organisation to know where AI is used, who owns it and what risk it carries.

Overview and accountability

Know which AI agents you have – and who is responsible.

Before an organisation can govern its AI agents, it needs to know which agents exist and what they are used for.

Mynder maps AI agents automatically where the platforms provide the necessary access. Agents and AI services that cannot be discovered automatically can be registered manually. Gaps in visibility are marked as unknown.

The agents are then brought together in one overview: who owns them, which tasks they perform and which systems they use.

That gives a better basis for assessing risk and deciding which boundaries should apply.

Permissions and control

Decide what the agents are allowed to do.

Not every AI agent needs the same permissions.

One agent may be allowed to analyse information but not change it. Another may propose an action but must wait for approval before it is carried out.

Mynder helps the organisation define accountability and permissions for its agents.

The agent can retrieve and analyse information.

Propose

The agent can recommend actions that a human must approve.

The agent can carry out defined tasks within agreed boundaries.

Documentation and compliance

Be able to show what has been done, who is responsible and which requirements apply.

When AI agents become part of everyday work, the organisation must be able to document how they are governed.

Mynder logs all agent activity and provides a shared foundation for following up accountability, permissions, risk and relevant requirements.

That makes it easier to work systematically with compliance and show how the organisation follows up its use of AI agents.

Suppliers and supply chain

See which suppliers and subcontractors your AI agents are built on.

Every AI agent is built on services from suppliers. Mynder brings together which supplier is behind each agent, which agreements and DPAs apply, and which sub-processors are used.

Licences and spend

Mynder shows cost per agent, with figures taken from your own systems – year to date and per month.

Get one picture of which AI agents are in use, who owns them and which suppliers are behind them.

Agents connected to Mynder via MCP are registered in the overview. Other agents are mapped through integrations where the platforms allow access, or registered manually. Employees can also use their own AI assistant to retrieve and visualise information from Mynder.

This can be an overview of systems, suppliers, risk, maturity and compliance status.

Mynder is your organisation's shared governance foundation. The AI assistant makes the information easy to use.

“Which AI systems and agents have we registered?”

“Create a dashboard showing our compliance status.”

“Show which areas need follow-up.”

The AI assistant can present the information as overviews, tables and dashboards, based on information already registered in Mynder.

AI agents, systems and suppliers are being adopted fast. Mynder brings the overview together, so leadership can see what is in use, who is responsible and what it costs.

Overview and ownership

Which agents and services are in use, and who owns them.

Risk and deviations

Risk is assessed, and deviations are followed up with clear ownership.

Costs

Cost per agent, drawn from your own systems, and how it develops over time.

Documentation

All agent activity is logged, and assessments and decisions are documented.

Mynder Core

Connects requirements, risks, processes, systems and responsibilities in a living model of the organisation. Provides a foundation for insight, reporting and documenting compliance.

Compliance

Sara

Gathers facts from approved sources within your organisation's own boundaries, and delivers structured findings for a person to review. Sara never concludes on compliance.

The disconnected version of Sara is currently being tested in critical infrastructure, completely without an internet connection.

Better basis for decisions

Leadership sees the whole picture and can prioritise use, risk and costs.

Documented control

You can show who is responsible, what has been assessed and what has been decided.

Relevant regulation and standards

EU AI Act

NIS2

Havtil (Framework and Management Regulations)

GDPR

ISO/IEC 42001

Mynder provides a basis for documenting and following up requirements. Responsibility for compliance stays with the organisation.

Havtil asks: where do you use AI?

Regulators such as Havtil, the Norwegian Ocean Industry Authority, expect companies to manage risk in their own operations – including when AI becomes part of the work.

The question is simple: which AI systems and agents are in use, for what, and who is responsible? For many, the answer is spread across departments, tools and suppliers.

One overview across your tools

How much can be discovered automatically varies from source to source. Anything that can't be linked to an owner or a purpose is clearly marked as unknown, so it can be followed up.

Azure

Coverage depends on which sources are connected and what access each platform provides.

Every agent has a supplier behind it

AI agents are built on services from suppliers, who in turn use subcontractors. Control of AI requires an overview of the whole chain.
