OUR PURPOSE: ISO 42001 CERTIFICATION FOR SMB

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 42001 standard provides requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS). Internal and external parties can use this international standard to assess an organisation’s ability to govern, develop, deploy, and manage AI systems responsibly while addressing risks, ethical considerations, and regulatory obligations.
ISO/IEC 42001 is the world’s first internationally recognised standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS). Achieving ISO 42001 certification demonstrates an organisation’s commitment to the responsible governance of AI, effective AI risk management, transparency, accountability, human oversight, and compliance with applicable legal, regulatory, and ethical requirements. This package is tailored for organisations that have already implemented the Cyber Premium or Cyber Elite package and wish to establish or mature their
Artificial Intelligence Management System, enabling the secure, ethical, and compliant adoption of AI technologies across the organisation.

ISO 42001 CERTIFICATION BENEFIT FOR SMB

ISO/IEC 42001 is an internationally recognised standard for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS). It provides a framework for organisations to govern AI responsibly, manage AI-related risks, and ensure the ethical, transparent, and compliant use of artificial intelligence technologies.

Achieving ISO/IEC 42001 certification demonstrates an organisation’s commitment to responsible AI adoption, effective AI governance, risk management, and compliance with emerging AI regulations and industry best practices. This service is tailored for organisations that have already implemented the Cyber Premium service and wish to strengthen their AI governance framework and enable the safe,
ethical, and compliant use of artificial intelligence technologies.

Responsible AI Governance: It helps organisations establish a structured framework for governing artificial intelligence systems, ensuring they are
designed, deployed, and managed responsibly throughout their lifecycle.

Regulatory and Legal Compliance: Compliance with ISO/IEC 42001 can help organisations address emerging AI regulations, legal obligations, and ethical
requirements related to the use of artificial intelligence.

AI Risk Management: It provides a framework for identifying, assessing, and managing AI-related risks, helping organisations implement appropriate controls
to mitigate risks associated with AI systems, including bias, transparency, security,
and unintended outcomes.

Competitive Advantage: Achieving certification to ISO/IEC 42001 can provide organisations with a competitive advantage, demonstrating to customers, regulators, partners, and other stakeholders that they are committed to the responsible and trustworthy use of AI technologies.

Loss of
licence

Regulated businesses risk losing their licence for non-compliance, leading to business disruptions and financial losses.

Continuous Improvement: The standard requires organisations to continually monitor, evaluate, and improve their Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS), ensuring AI governance practices remain effective, transparent, and aligned with changing technologies, risks, and regulatory expectations.

AI Management System

Implementation of the Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS), including AI governance frameworks, policies, procedures, risk assessments, controls, and internal audit activities to support certification readiness. This phase ensures that the organisation has implemented the necessary AI governance practices and controls required by ISO/IEC 42001, preparing for external certification assessment.

ISO 42001 Tool

This package requires the use of the GRC tool. Vanta and Drata accelerate the ISO/IEC 42001 certification journey by simplifying AI governance, risk management, compliance monitoring, and audit readiness activities through a single integrated platform. Vanta seamlessly integrates with your Microsoft Cloud environment,
leveraging the security, compliance, and governance controls already established through the Cyber Premium or Cyber Elite package.
GRC Tool provides a centralized view of your Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS), enabling organisations to manage AI risks, monitor compliance obligations, maintain governance documentation, collect audit evidence, and demonstrate responsible AI practices. Through automation and continuous monitoring, Vanta helps reduce administrative effort while supporting ongoing compliance with ISO/IEC 42001 and emerging AI regulatory requirements.
