ISO/IEC 42006
What is ISO/IEC 42006?
ISO/IEC 42006 sets out the additional requirements for bodies that audit and certify artificial intelligence management systems (AIMS) according to ISO/IEC 42001. It builds on ISO/IEC 17021-1 and ensures that certification bodies operate with the competence and rigour necessary to assess organisations developing, deploying or offering AI systems.
Why is ISO/IEC 42006 important?
AI systems present unique challenges in areas like ethics, data quality, risk, and transparency. To certify that an organisation responsibly manages these challenges, auditors themselves need specialised knowledge and clear rules for conducting assessments. ISO/IEC 42006 ensures that the audit and certification of AI management systems is performed consistently and credibly, giving customers and stakeholders confidence that certified organisations meet the expectations set out in ISO/IEC 42001.
