# EC-Council Releases Free AI Governance Crosswalks

On October 14, 2026, EC-Council released ADG 2.0 and made its AI governance framework and crosswalks to more than 90 regulations and standards available at no cost to governments, regulators, and standards bodies. Implementation assistance is available on request. This is not an RFP or contract award; it gives public agencies and government contractors a free reference for mapping AI controls, documenting evidence, and preparing for differing regulatory approaches.

- Agencies and contractors can use the crosswalks to compare AI governance controls across frameworks and organize supporting evidence without purchasing access to the materials.
- The resource may help procurement teams describe and evaluate AI governance expectations in solicitations and vendor assessments; it does not itself create mandatory compliance requirements.
- Governments, regulators, and standards bodies seeking implementation assistance can contact EC-Council at adg@eccouncil.org.
