SAN FRANCISCO, 28th March 2024: Vanta, the leading trust management platform, today launched support for the ISO 42001 standard, giving customers a framework for responsibly developing and using AI through an AI Management system (AIMS) certified by third-party auditors. Aligned with the launch, Vanta unveiled the agenda for VantaCon UK, bringing their annual user conference to London on 23 April to discuss global trends in security, compliance and the future of trust in an AI world amongst a gathering of experts and Vanta customers.

According to Vanta's State of Trust Report, 54% of business and IT leaders globally are concerned that secure data management is becoming more challenging with AI adoption, with another 51% saying that using Generative AI technologies could erode customer trust. As a result, security teams are spending more time building trust in their AI-powered products through back-and-forth conversations with prospects and creating bespoke documentation with less time for strategic security initiatives.

Demonstrating AI trust with ISO 42001 in Vanta

Established by the International Standards Organisation, ISO 42001 defines the requirements of an AIMS that helps organisations responsibly develop and use AI — emphasising ethical considerations, transparency and the necessity of continuous improvement. Designed for organisations that provide AI-based technologies or use AI sub-processors in their systems, ISO 42001 assists these organisations by outlining the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and improving an AIMS.

Vanta's ISO 42001 solution simplifies AI system management through a lifecycle approach, ensuring that ethical considerations and risk management are embedded throughout the product development, deployment and operational stages. Vanta centralises all the ISO 42001 requirements in one place and helps customers document their AI policies, including:

• Centralise and track requirements: Vanta's ISO 42001 solution comes with 70 new controls to streamline the implementation of governance requirements
• Establish AI policies and process: Vanta's included policy templates helps customers define the scope of their AIMS, associated risks, impact, and more
• Build responsible AI practices: Vanta helps customers understand, build and document their AI practices such as AI system development, usage, and data management within their AI system lifecycle

Coming soon, Vanta will release enhanced documentation automation, which automatically generates an Artificial Intelligence Impact Assessment (AIIA) report based on a customers' AI provider type, AI model algorithm, the intended use of their system, and more — having an AIIA report is a fundamental requirement of ISO 42001, but also to comply with the EU AI Act.
