Australian Government Mandatory AI Guardrails

# Australian Government Mandatory AI Guardrails — 100% of in-scope requirements covered.

10 requirements · 9 in scope (9 enforced) · 1 out-of-scope (outside KYE™’s authority layer). The 100% is weighted over the in-scope base.

**Source:** Department of Industry, Science and Resources (DISR), 'Safe and responsible AI in Australia' Proposals Paper for introducing mandatory guardrails for AI in high-risk settings + the Voluntary AI Safety Standard (September 2024). 10 guardrails.
