But as the technology evolves, so do the risks: algorithmic bias, lack of transparency in automated decisions, data vulnerabilities, and growing regulatory pressure. ISO/IEC 42001 is the first certifiable international standard for AI management systems, helping companies turn innovation into a competitive advantage with safety, accountability, and traceability. In this guide, you’ll learn: 

• What ISO/IEC 42001 is and why it’s a milestone for AI governance; 

• Key components and requirements of the standard, including AIMS, risk management, and ethical principles;  

• How to implement ISO 42001 in practice with leadership support, clear policies, and internal audits;
