ISO 42001 is the first internationally certifiable standard for the governance of AI management systems (AIMS). It sets requirements for setting up, implementing, monitoring, and continuous improvement of AI systems. The aim is to help organizations develop and use AI securely, ethically and transparently.

ISO 42001 is relevant for all organizations that use AI in any form, regardless of size, industry, or structure. Certification is particularly important in areas such as HealthTech, FinTech and EdTech, where AI can directly influence the well-being of customers.

Create trust: Through independent certification, you can prove to customers and partners that your AI systems are secure, fair and transparent.Improve risk management: The implementation of ISO 42001 helps to minimize risks such as inaccurate data, data protection issues and regulatory requirements.Secure a competitive advantage: Companies that implement ISO 42001 are perceived as more trustworthy and responsible, which gives them an advantage in the market.

Transparency: AI decisions must be clear and comprehensible.Accountability: Companies must be able to explain how and why AI decisions were made.Fairness: The use of AI should not disadvantage anyone.Explainability: The results of AI systems must be clearly communicated. Data protection: The protection of user data must be guaranteed at all times.Reliability: AI systems must operate securely and reliably.

ISO 42001 is currently a voluntary standard, but regulatory requirements in the area of AI are expected to increase. Through proactive implementation, you prepare your company for future regulations and can act as an industry leader.
