ISO 42001 certification, in a quarter — not a year.
42001 is the first management system standard for AI. ShadowIQ ships with a mapped policy library, pre-built evidence, and monitoring aligned to the standard's clauses.
Summary
ISO/IEC 42001:2023 is the international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems (AIMS), specifying requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving AI governance. ShadowIQ provides pre-mapped policies, controls, and cryptographic evidence for clauses 4–10 and Annex A controls.
The crosswalk: article → control → signed evidence.
You've heard this one before.
- Annex A has 39 controls; you need evidence for each one.
- Clause 9 (performance evaluation) requires metrics nobody is collecting.
- External auditor wants artifacts you only have in slide decks.
- Your existing ISMS (27001) doesn't cover AI lifecycle.
Three moves.
- 1Annex A · 39 controls, pre-mapped.
A.2 internal organization, A.3 leadership, A.4 resources, A.5 impact analyses — each ships with a policy template and automated evidence.
- 2Clause 9 metrics, automated.
Performance monitoring (9.1), internal audit (9.2), management review (9.3) fed by live operational data, not quarterly snapshots.
- 327001-compatible, not duplicative.
Shared controls (access management, cryptography, SDLC) reuse 27001 evidence. AI-specific controls add on top.
Numbers, not adjectives.

Asked, answered, sourced.
No — ISO 42001 is management-system certification; the EU AI Act is law. But many AI Act requirements map cleanly to 42001 controls, so certification typically accelerates AI Act readiness by 40-60%.
Yes — Schellman, BSI, TÜV SÜD, and DNV have all consumed our evidence in 42001 pilots. We introduce customers to the audit partner best matched to their geography and scope.
ISO 42001 is designed to extend an existing 27001 ISMS. Shared clauses (leadership, planning, support, operation) reuse your ISMS framework; AI-specific clauses and Annex A controls add on top.
Keep going.

We'll wire ShadowIQ into one live workload, block a prompt injection in real time, and hand you a cryptographic receipt — before the meeting ends.
