What is ISO 42001?
ISO/IEC 42001 is the world's first international management system standard specifically designed for organizations developing, deploying, or using artificial intelligence systems. The standard provides a framework for establishing an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS) that promotes accountability, transparency, fairness, and continual improvement.
As AI adoption continues to grow, organizations must demonstrate that AI technologies are managed responsibly. ISO 42001 helps businesses identify and address AI-related risks while building trust among customers, regulators, partners, and stakeholders.
