Pentera, a leader in Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV), today announced it has achieved certification for ISO/IEC 42001:2023, the new international standard for AI management systems. Pentera is the first AEV vendor to meet this rigorous compliance benchmark, reinforcing its leadership in developing AI capabilities responsibly and securely.
Pentera is the first Adversarial Exposure Validation (AEV) vendor to achieve ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certification.
ISO/IEC 42001 is the first international standard for AI management systems.
The certification covers Pentera's operational AI use, development processes, and internal AI implementation.
This underscores Pentera's commitment to safe-by-design principles and responsible AI.
Pentera's AI approach focuses on transparency, accountability, and risk mitigation.
ISO/IEC 42001 is the inaugural international standard specifically for AI management systems. It provides a comprehensive framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving controls related to the development and use of AI, with a strong focus on transparency, accountability, and the mitigation of AI-related risks.
Pentera's certification encompasses critical areas of its AI operations:
Operational use of AI within the platform, including features like Pentera's recently announced AI Security Insights report. This report helps in analyzing cyber risk data.
Development processes, detailing how AI is researched, built, and governed across all teams.
AI implementation, covering how AI is used internally across various departments, tools, and decision-making processes.
At a time when AI regulation is evolving rapidly, Pentera applies the same safe-by-design principles, in-production testing safeguards, and controlled deployment procedures to its AI approach as it does to its core security validation. Governance over AI development and implementation is led by a steering committee of domain experts from across the organization, ensuring responsible execution and strict adherence to operational standards.
“As more organizations embrace AI, concerns around safety and responsible development are rising fast,” says Alex Spivakovsky, VP of Cybersecurity at Pentera. “Safety by design has always been at the core of how we built our platform, and AI is not changing that. We've already built a secure foundation for AI-based analysis of cyber risk data, and every AI capability we add moving forward will meet the same standard: Governed for safe enterprise use from day one.”
