ISO/IEC 42001:2023 6.1.2: AI risk assessment

Put in place a defined process for assessing AI risk that: follows the AI policy and objectives; gives consistent, valid and comparable results when repeated; identifies risks that help or hinder the AI objectives; analyses risks by assessing consequences for the organization, individuals and societies (an impact assessment under 6.1.4 can feed this), realistic likelihood where applicable, and risk levels; and evaluates risks by comparing results with the risk criteria and prioritizing them for treatment. Keep documented information about the process.

Other controls in Planning – ISO/IEC 42001:2023

You are reading one control. How much of ISO/IEC 42001:2023 have you already done?

ISO/IEC 42001:2023 6.1.2 is one control. If you already hold one of the frameworks below, a reviewed crosswalk already says how much of ISO/IEC 42001:2023 your existing evidence covers. Hold NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) and 30 of 38 ISO/IEC 42001:2023 controls already carry evidence.

Each report names every control your existing framework evidences, every one it does not, the reasoning behind each claim, and the claims that were argued against and rejected. 0 were rejected on the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) pair alone.
