ISO/IEC 42001
What is ISO/IEC 42001 standard?
The ISO/IEC 42001:2023 standard is the first international standard focused on the management of artificial intelligence systems (Artificial Intelligence Management System – AIMS).
It provides a framework for a responsible, secure, and transparent approach to both the development and use of artificial intelligence, in line with ethical principles, legal requirements, and international standards. The ISO/IEC 42001 standard specifies requirements for the creation, implementation, maintenance, and continuous improvement of AIMS.
Certification is suitable for all organizations that develop, implement, or use artificial intelligence technologies, regardless of their size or sector – from technology companies and development centers to service providers, public institutions, and startups.
By implementing a management system in accordance with ISO/IEC 42001, you gain control over AI-related processes, strengthen customer trust, and demonstrate compliance with the principles of the EU AI Act and other regulatory frameworks.
Requirements of ISO/IEC 42001
The standard sets out requirements for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, and continually improving an AI management system. It focuses on:
- Organizational context and AI risk management – identifying risks and opportunities associated with the use of artificial intelligence.
- AI policy and strategy – clearly defining objectives, responsibilities, and principles for the ethical use of AI.
- Data and algorithm management – ensuring the quality, transparency, and traceability of data inputs and models.
- System security and reliability – protection against misuse, errors, and unintended AI behavior.
- Human oversight and accountability – involving qualified experts and clearly defining responsibilities within decision-making processes.
- Measurement and evaluation of AI system performance – regular monitoring, audits, and assessment of the effectiveness of implemented measures.These requirements enable organizations to establish a trustworthy, transparent, and ethically governed approach to artificial intelligence.
These requirements enable organizations to establish a trustworthy, transparent, and ethically governed approach to artificial intelligence.
