This assessment is designed to help CEOs evaluate their understanding of AI‑related cyber risks, governance responsibilities, and strategic oversight. Select the best answer for each question. After completing the quiz, review the correct answers and explanations to identify areas where executive‑level attention or investment may be needed. 
AI introduces new, rapidly evolving cyber risks that require executive‑level oversight. The most important areas CEOs must question include: 

• Visibility: Knowing where AI is used across the enterprise 
• Security: Ensuring models, data, and pipelines are protected 
• Governance: Establishing clear accountability across business units 
• Compliance: Staying aligned with emerging AI regulations 
• Incident Response: Preparing for AI‑specific attack scenarios 
• Third‑Party Risk: Validating vendor AI security practices 

Strong AI governance is not a technical detail—it’s a strategic leadership responsibility that protects the organization’s reputation, data, and long‑term competitiveness.
