Apptega ISO 42001 Support: The Fast-Track to AI Security and Compliance

The meteoric rise of generative pre-trained transformers (GPTs) and other language learning models has brought new ethical and safety concerns to the surface. Recent GPT leaks and lawsuits have grabbed the headlines, raising questions about data transmission, retention, and privacy in AI development and deployment.  

As artificial intelligence increasingly permeates every aspect of business operations, organizations face mounting pressure to ensure sustainable treatment of technologies that are now deeply ingrained in our everyday lives.  

ISO 42001, the world’s first AI management system standard, aims to provide the guardrails. 

To help fast-track your compliance journey, Apptega recently announced the addition of ISO 42001 to its framework library. By simplifying compliance program management for the new artificial intelligence standard, your organization can go to market faster with secure, responsible, and compliant AI technologies. 

Our goal is to equip you with the tools, guidance, and expertise to not only speed ISO 42001 adoption but also easily navigate the complex issues AI poses. That way you can focus on winning more business and growing your margins — without worrying about your AI going rogue.

What Is ISO 42001?

Published in 2023 by the International Standards Organization and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), ISO 42001 provides global guidance and a systematic approach to risk management within a framework built around existing organizational structures.  

Designed for any organization that develops, distributes, or uses AI systems, ISO 42001 provides a forward-thinking approach that can help you stay on top of AI regulations and requirements without stifling progress.  

To strike this delicate balance between governance and innovation, the framework prioritizes human well-being, safety, and privacy while also identifying opportunities for business growth. It’s expected to play a critical role in building confidence and trust in artificial intelligence, giving organizations a regulatory blueprint and consumers peace of mind that standards are met. 

ISO 42001 provides timely guidance to organizations looking to comply with new AI laws and regulations being enacted worldwide. While the framework is viewed as a strategic decision and isn’t mandatory, organizations that want to avoid potential fines, breaches, or other issues would benefit from its guidance.
