The document sets four specific rules for participating companies. Each firm must implement internal controls to monitor model capabilities and alignment during training and deployment, focusing on cybersecurity, biosecurity, and chemical threats. Companies must also empower an internal team to verify controls and remediate issues.

Independent oversight forms the third and fourth rules. Firms are required to partner with an external auditor or evaluator for assessments of controls and detection systems. An independent board committee must oversee reports from internal teams and auditors while ensuring remediation of identified problems.
