Privacy and security	Individuals control when their data is used, and no unauthorized user or system can access it	Protecting personal data
Transparency	Communicates information about the system (development process, capabilities, limitations) so stakeholders can make informed choices	Disclosing how a system works and its limits
Veracity and robustness	Operates reliably even with unexpected inputs, uncertainty, and errors	Resilience to changing data or conditions
Governance	Processes to define, implement, and enforce responsible AI practices, including compliance with laws	Policies, compliance, enforcement
