ISO/IEC 42001

Rules, risk and compliance

ISO/IEC 42001:2023 is the international standard published in December 2023 by ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission).

It is the first standard in the world on artificial intelligence management systems. It specifies the requirements through which an organisation that develops, supplies or uses AI systems establishes, implements, maintains and improves an AI management system over time: policy and objectives, roles and responsibilities, assessment of the risks and of the impact of the systems on people and society, controls on data, transparency and human oversight, monitoring and continuous improvement. It has the same structure as the other management system standards, such as ISO 9001 for quality and ISO/IEC 27001 for information security, and like these it can be certified by a third party. It does not replace the AI Act, but it helps to demonstrate that the risks have been managed in a structured way.
