MSSP Market News: Could AI governance be MSSPs’ next revenue stream?
Industry observers are asking whether managed security service providers (MSSPs) are positioned to offer AI governance as a billable service, as organizations face growing pressure to manage AI-related risk alongside traditional cybersecurity.
Why this matters: AI governance is still work someone has to do. Right now most companies do not have the people or the processes to do it well. MSSPs already sit inside client environments, manage risk, and run compliance programs. That makes them a natural fit to absorb AI oversight work. The catch is that 'AI governance as a service' can mean almost anything, and if it becomes just another checkbox offering, the actual accountability gaps stay open. Who is really responsible when an AI system harms someone is the question this market trend does not yet answer.
