Artificial Intelligence in Cybersecurity: The Risk, Governance, and Trust Frameworks

Abstract Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly becoming a part of cybersecurity solutions, which provide superior threat detection, predictive analytics, and automated protection. Nevertheless, implementing AI also introduces specific weaknesses, including adversarial attacks, data poisoning, and model drift, as well as more global issues of accountability, compliance, and stakeholder trust. This paper proposes the Risk-Governance-Trust (RGT) Framework, which is operationalized through a new Risk-Trust Scoring Algorithm (RTSA) to evaluate AI-enabled cybersecurity systems holistically. It is a framework that brings together three pillars: (a) risk assessment, which assesses technical vulnerabilities based on likelihood, impact, and detectability; (b) governance, which ensures accountability, compliance with standards, and lifecycle monitoring; and (c) trust, which is measured in terms of transparency, fairness, and accountability. The RTSA is a composite indicator with a range of -1 to +1, indicating the resilience and trustworthiness of AI-driven systems. The algorithm has proven to be useful in financial services, healthcare, and critical infrastructure, with case-based validation providing interpretable, scalable, and actionable insights. Findings indicate that AI plays a significant role in enhancing cyber defense; however, its application should be accompanied by robust governance and trust systems. The RGT framework provides organizations and policymakers with a practical and structured tool for assessing and implementing AI in cybersecurity responsibly.
