ISO/IEC 42001 is the first international, certifiable standard for an AI Management System (AIMS), defining how an organization governs the responsible development, deployment and operation of AI.
What is ISO/IEC 42001?
Where NIST AI RMF is principle-based and voluntary, ISO/IEC 42001 is auditable and certifiable, making it a strong procurement signal. For enterprises, it provides a defensible structure for AI governance; for vendors, holding it demonstrates responsible AI practice.
