# ISO/IEC 42001:2023 — AI Risk Assessment & AISIA Methodology
|
|
2
|
-
|
|
3
|
-
This reference covers the two mandatory assessments under Clause 6.1.2:
|
|
4
|
-
1. **AI Risk Assessment** — evaluates risks to the organisation from AI systems
|
|
5
|
-
2. **AI System Impact Assessment (AISIA)** — evaluates risks to individuals and society from AI systems
|
|
6
|
-
|
|
7
|
-
Both must be completed for every AI system in scope. Both must be maintained and updated over time.

## Part 1: AI Risk Assessment
|
|
12
|
-
|
|
13
|
-
### Purpose
|
|
14
|
-
Identify, analyse, and evaluate risks associated with AI systems so that appropriate treatment decisions can be made. This is a **risk-to-the-organisation** lens (complement to the AISIA which takes a societal/individual lens).
|
|
15
|

|
|
16
|

### Risk Assessment Framework
|
|
17
|
-
|
|
18
|
-
**Step 1: Identify AI Risks**
|
|
19
|
-
|
|
20
|
-
For each AI system in scope, identify risks across these categories:
|
|
21
|
-
|
|
22
|
-
#### Model Risks
|
|
23
|
-
| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
24
|
-
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
25
|
-
| Bias and unfairness | Model produces systematically different outputs for protected groups | Loan approval AI approves at lower rates for certain demographic groups |
|
|
26
|
-
| Hallucination / confabulation | Model generates plausible-sounding but incorrect outputs | LLM generates false legal citations |
|
|
27
|
-
| Model drift | Model performance degrades as real-world data distribution shifts | Fraud detection model misses new fraud patterns 12 months post-deployment |
|
|
28
|
-
| Adversarial attacks | Inputs crafted to manipulate model outputs | Adversarial examples cause image classifier to misclassify |
|
|
29
|
-
| Model inversion | Training data can be reconstructed from model outputs | Privacy violation — personal data extracted from model |
|
|
30
|
-
| Overfitting | Model performs well in testing but poorly in production | High accuracy in evaluation, low accuracy on live data |
|
|
31
|
-
|
|
32
|
-
#### Data Risks
|
|
33
|
-
| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
34
|
-
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
35
|
-
| Training data quality | Poor quality data leads to poor model performance | Incomplete labels cause systematic errors |
|
|
36
|
-
| Data poisoning | Attacker inserts malicious training data to manipulate model behaviour | Supply chain compromise of training dataset |
|
|
37
|
-
| Privacy in training data | Training data contains PII or sensitive data unlawfully | Medical data used for AI training without lawful basis |
|
|
38
|
-
| Data representativeness | Training data doesn't represent the deployment population | Model trained on US data deployed globally — cultural bias |
|
|
39
|
-
| Data provenance gaps | Origin and rights for training data unknown | Copyright or licence violations in training data |
|
|
40
|
-
|
|
41
|
-
#### Operational Risks
|
|
42
|
-
| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
43
|
-
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
44
|
-
| Unintended use | AI system used for purposes not covered by AISIA | Internal HR tool used to screen job applicants |
|
|
45
|
-
| System failure | AI system becomes unavailable or produces errors at scale | API outage causes customer-facing decisions to fail |
|
|
46
|
-
| Scope creep | AI system expanded to new use cases without re-assessment | Chatbot expanded to give medical advice without clinical review |
|
|
47
|
-
| Human over-reliance | Users accept AI outputs without appropriate scrutiny | Staff approve AI recommendations without verification |
|
|
48

#### Supply Chain Risks
|
|
51
|
-
| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
52
|
-
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
53
|
-
| Third-party model risk | Pre-trained model from vendor contains bias or backdoor | Open-source LLM used without bias evaluation |
|
|
54
|
-
| API dependency | AI functionality depends on external API with reliability risk | Vendor changes model behaviour mid-contract |
|
|
55
|
-
| Vendor lock-in | Cannot switch AI provider without major operational disruption | All AI inference tied to single cloud provider |
|
|
56
|
-
| Third-party data handling | AI vendor handles sensitive data — data protection risk | Vendor uses customer data to retrain models without consent |
|
|

|
|
72
|
-
| 1 | Rare | May occur only in exceptional circumstances (<5% probability in system lifecycle) |
|
|
73
|
-
| 2 | Unlikely | Could occur but not expected (5–25% probability) |
|
|
74
|
-
| 3 | Possible | Might occur at some point (25–50% probability) |
|
|
75
|
-
| 4 | Likely | Will probably occur in most circumstances (50–80% probability) |
|
|
76
|
-
| 5 | Almost certain | Expected to occur frequently (>80% probability) |

|
|
114
|
-
|----------------|------------|------------------|
|
|
115
|
-
| **Modify the AI system** | Risk is inherent to current design | Retrain with better data, add guardrails, change architecture, implement bias mitigation |
|
|
116
|
-
| **Add operational controls** | Risk can be managed through process | Human review checkpoints, output filtering, monitoring, incident alerting |
|
|
117
|
-
| **Accept with monitoring** | Residual risk is acceptable; monitoring can detect materialisation | Document acceptance decision with senior sign-off; define alert thresholds |
|
|
118
|
-
| **Avoid** | Risk cannot be reduced to acceptable level | Do not deploy AI for this use case; find non-AI alternative |
|
|
119
|
-
| **Transfer** | Third-party better placed to manage | Contractual liability allocation; insurance; require vendor indemnification (A.10.2 Allocating responsibilities, A.10.3 Suppliers) |

## Part 2: AI System Impact Assessment (AISIA)
|
|
138
|
-
|
|
139
|
-
### Purpose
|
|
140
|
-
The AISIA takes a **stakeholder and societal lens** — it assesses impacts on individuals, groups, and society from the AI system's outputs and decisions. This is mandatory under Clause 6.1.2 and directly referenced in Annex A.5 (controls A.5.2–A.5.5).
|
|
141
|
-
|
|
142
|
-
### When to Conduct an AISIA
|
|
143
|
-
- **Before initial deployment** of any AI system in scope
|
|
144
|
-
- **When the AI system changes** significantly (new use case, new population, new output type)
|
|
145
|
-
- **When operating context changes** (new regulation, new demographic affected)
|
|
146
|
-
- **On a scheduled review cycle** (annually recommended for medium/high impact systems)
|
|
147
|

### AISIA Step-by-Step Process
|
|
151
|
-
|
|
152
|
-
**Step 1: Document the AI System**
|
|
153
|
-
| Field | Content |
|
|
154
|
-
|-------|---------|
|
|
155
|
-
| AI system name and version | |
|
|
156
|
-
| AI system owner | |
|
|
157
|
-
| Intended purpose | What the system is designed to do |
|
|
158
|
-
| Output type | Decision support / Autonomous decision / Content generation / Classification / Prediction / Recommendation / Other |
|
|
159
|
-
| Inputs | What data is fed into the system |
|
|
160
|
-
| Deployment context | Where and how used — internal/customer-facing/regulatory context |
|
|
161
|
-
| Operating conditions | Conditions under which system is expected to perform correctly |
|
|
162
|
-
|
|
163
|
-
**Step 2: Identify Affected Populations**
|
|
164
|
-
| Population | How Affected | Vulnerability |
|
|
165
|
-
|-----------|-------------|--------------|
|
|
166
|
-
| Identify all groups whose rights, opportunities, or wellbeing may be affected by AI outputs | | |
|
|
167
|
-
|
|
168
|
-
Vulnerability factors: age (children/elderly), disability, socioeconomic status, minority group membership, limited AI literacy, power imbalance (employer/employee; government/citizen).
|
|
169
|
-
|
|
170
|
-
**Step 3: Assess Impact Dimensions**
|
|
171
|
-
|
|
172
|
-
For each affected population, assess:
|
|
173
|
-
|
|
174
|
-
| Dimension | Questions to Ask |
|
|
175
|
-
|-----------|----------------|
|
|
176
|
-
| **Nature of impact** | What kind of harm could occur? Financial, physical, psychological, reputational, loss of rights, discrimination? |
|
|
177
|
-
| **Severity** | How serious is the worst-case impact? |
|
|
178
|
-
| **Breadth** | How many individuals could be affected? |
|
|
179
|
-
| **Reversibility** | Can the harm be corrected if the AI system makes an error? |
|
|
180
|
-
| **Duration** | Is the impact short-term or long-lasting? |
|
|
181
|
-
| **Consent and awareness** | Are affected individuals aware AI is being used? Did they consent? |
|
|
182
|
-
| **Human oversight** | Is there a meaningful human review of AI outputs before they affect individuals? |
|
|
183
|
-
| **Recourse** | Can individuals challenge AI decisions? Is there an appeal process? |
|
|
184
|
-
|
|
185
|
-
**Step 4: Classify Impact Level**
|
|
186
|
-
|
|
187
|
-
| Level | Criteria | Examples |
|
|
188
|
-

|
-
| **Low** | Limited impact; easily reversible; non-vulnerable individuals; AI is advisory only; robust human oversight | Product recommendation engine; internal productivity tool |
|
|
190
|
-
| **Medium** | Moderate impact; partially reversible; some vulnerable individuals may be affected; AI has significant weight in decisions | Customer service routing; content moderation; credit risk scoring with human review |
|
|
191

|
|
246
|
-
ISO 42001 AISIA aligns closely with **EU AI Act Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment (FRIA)** requirements for high-risk AI systems. Organisations preparing for EU AI Act compliance can use their 42001 AISIA as a foundation — extending it to cover the specific FRIA requirements for EU high-risk AI system categories:

# ISO/IEC 42001:2023 — AI Risk Assessment & AISIA Methodology
|
|
2
|
+
|
|
3
|
+
This reference covers the two mandatory assessments under Clause 6.1.2:
|
|
4
|
+
1. **AI Risk Assessment** — evaluates risks to the organisation from AI systems
|
|
5
|
+
2. **AI System Impact Assessment (AISIA)** — evaluates risks to individuals and society from AI systems
|
|
6
|
+
|
|
7
|
+
Both must be completed for every AI system in scope. Both must be maintained and updated over time.

## Part 1: AI Risk Assessment
|
|
12
|
+
|
|
13
|
+
### Purpose
|
|
14
|
+
Identify, analyse, and evaluate risks associated with AI systems so that appropriate treatment decisions can be made. This is a **risk-to-the-organisation** lens (complement to the AISIA which takes a societal/individual lens).
|
|
15
|
+
|
|
16
|
+
### Risk Assessment Framework
|
|
17
|
+
|
|
18
|
+
**Step 1: Identify AI Risks**
|
|
19
|
+
|
|
20
|
+
For each AI system in scope, identify risks across these categories:
|
|
21
|
+
|
|
22
|
+
#### Model Risks
|
|
23
|
+
| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
24
|
+
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
25
|
+
| Bias and unfairness | Model produces systematically different outputs for protected groups | Loan approval AI approves at lower rates for certain demographic groups |
|
|
26
|
+
| Hallucination / confabulation | Model generates plausible-sounding but incorrect outputs | LLM generates false legal citations |
|
|
27
|
+
| Model drift | Model performance degrades as real-world data distribution shifts | Fraud detection model misses new fraud patterns 12 months post-deployment |
|
|
28
|
+
| Adversarial attacks | Inputs crafted to manipulate model outputs | Adversarial examples cause image classifier to misclassify |
|
|
29
|
+
| Model inversion | Training data can be reconstructed from model outputs | Privacy violation — personal data extracted from model |
|
|
30
|
+
| Overfitting | Model performs well in testing but poorly in production | High accuracy in evaluation, low accuracy on live data |
|
|
31
|
+
|
|
32
|
+
#### Data Risks
|
|
33
|
+
| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
34
|
+
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
35
|
+
| Training data quality | Poor quality data leads to poor model performance | Incomplete labels cause systematic errors |
|
|
36
|
+
| Data poisoning | Attacker inserts malicious training data to manipulate model behaviour | Supply chain compromise of training dataset |
|
|
37
|
+
| Privacy in training data | Training data contains PII or sensitive data unlawfully | Medical data used for AI training without lawful basis |
|
|
38
|
+
| Data representativeness | Training data doesn't represent the deployment population | Model trained on US data deployed globally — cultural bias |
|
|
39
|
+
| Data provenance gaps | Origin and rights for training data unknown | Copyright or licence violations in training data |
|
|
40
|
+
|
|
41
|
+
#### Operational Risks
|
|
42
|
+
| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
43
|
+
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
44
|
+
| Unintended use | AI system used for purposes not covered by AISIA | Internal HR tool used to screen job applicants |
|
|
45
|
+
| System failure | AI system becomes unavailable or produces errors at scale | API outage causes customer-facing decisions to fail |
|
|
46
|
+
| Scope creep | AI system expanded to new use cases without re-assessment | Chatbot expanded to give medical advice without clinical review |
|
|
47
|
+
| Human over-reliance | Users accept AI outputs without appropriate scrutiny | Staff approve AI recommendations without verification |
|
|
48
|
+
| Lack of explainability | Cannot explain AI decisions to affected individuals | Automated rejection letter with no basis provided |
|
|
49
|
+

| Risk | Description | Example |
|
|
52
|
+
|------|-------------|---------|
|
|
53
|
+
| Third-party model risk | Pre-trained model from vendor contains bias or backdoor | Open-source LLM used without bias evaluation |
|
|
54
|
+
| API dependency | AI functionality depends on external API with reliability risk | Vendor changes model behaviour mid-contract |
|
|
55
|
+
| Vendor lock-in | Cannot switch AI provider without major operational disruption | All AI inference tied to single cloud provider |
|
|
56
|
+
| Third-party data handling | AI vendor handles sensitive data — data protection risk | Vendor uses customer data to retrain models without consent |

|-------|-------|-----------|
|
|
72
|
+
| 1 | Rare | May occur only in exceptional circumstances (<5% probability in system lifecycle) |
|
|
73
|
+
| 2 | Unlikely | Could occur but not expected (5–25% probability) |
|
|
74
|
+
| 3 | Possible | Might occur at some point (25–50% probability) |
|
|
75
|
+
| 4 | Likely | Will probably occur in most circumstances (50–80% probability) |
|
|
76
|
+
| 5 | Almost certain | Expected to occur frequently (>80% probability) |
|
|
77
|

|
+
| Score | Level | Definition |
|
|
80
|
+
|-------|-------|-----------|
|
|
81
|
+
| 1 | Negligible | No meaningful harm; easily corrected |
|
|
82
|
+
| 2 | Minor | Limited impact; correctable with minor effort |
|
|
83
|
+
| 3 | Moderate | Significant but recoverable harm; some operational disruption |
|

84
|
+
| 4 | Major | Serious harm; difficult to reverse; significant operational or reputational impact |
|
|
85
|
+
| 5 | Critical | Catastrophic harm; irreversible; severe regulatory, legal, financial, or societal impact |

| Treatment Option | When to Use | Controls to Apply |
|
|
114
|
+
|----------------|------------|------------------|
|
|
115
|
+
| **Modify the AI system** | Risk is inherent to current design | Retrain with better data, add guardrails, change architecture, implement bias mitigation |
|
|
116
|
+
| **Add operational controls** | Risk can be managed through process | Human review checkpoints, output filtering, monitoring, incident alerting |
|
|
117
|
+
| **Accept with monitoring** | Residual risk is acceptable; monitoring can detect materialisation | Document acceptance decision with senior sign-off; define alert thresholds |
|
|
118
|
+
| **Avoid** | Risk cannot be reduced to acceptable level | Do not deploy AI for this use case; find non-AI alternative |
|
|
119
|
+
| **Transfer** | Third-party better placed to manage | Contractual liability allocation; insurance; require vendor indemnification (A.10.2 Allocating responsibilities, A.10.3 Suppliers) |

## Part 2: AI System Impact Assessment (AISIA)
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
### Purpose
|
|
140
|
+
The AISIA takes a **stakeholder and societal lens** — it assesses impacts on individuals, groups, and society from the AI system's outputs and decisions. This is mandatory under Clause 6.1.2 and directly referenced in Annex A.5 (controls A.5.2–A.5.5).
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
### When to Conduct an AISIA
|
|
143
|
+
- **Before initial deployment** of any AI system in scope
|
|
144
|
+
- **When the AI system changes** significantly (new use case, new population, new output type)
|
|
145
|
+
- **When operating context changes** (new regulation, new demographic affected)
|
|
146
|
+
- **On a scheduled review cycle** (annually recommended for medium/high impact systems)
|
|
147
|

### AISIA Step-by-Step Process
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
**Step 1: Document the AI System**
|
|
153
|
+
| Field | Content |
|
|
154
|
+
|-------|---------|
|
|
155
|
+
| AI system name and version | |
|
|
156
|
+
| AI system owner | |
|
|
157
|
+
| Intended purpose | What the system is designed to do |
|
|
158
|
+
| Output type | Decision support / Autonomous decision / Content generation / Classification / Prediction / Recommendation / Other |
|
|
159
|
+
| Inputs | What data is fed into the system |
|
|
160
|
+
| Deployment context | Where and how used — internal/customer-facing/regulatory context |
|
|
161
|
+
| Operating conditions | Conditions under which system is expected to perform correctly |
|
|
162
|
+
|
|
163
|
+
**Step 2: Identify Affected Populations**
|
|
164
|
+
| Population | How Affected | Vulnerability |
|
|
165
|
+
|-----------|-------------|--------------|
|
|
166
|
+
| Identify all groups whose rights, opportunities, or wellbeing may be affected by AI outputs | | |
|
|
167
|
+
|
|
168
|
+
Vulnerability factors: age (children/elderly), disability, socioeconomic status, minority group membership, limited AI literacy, power imbalance (employer/employee; government/citizen).
|
|
169
|
+
|
|
170
|
+
**Step 3: Assess Impact Dimensions**
|
|
171
|
+
|
|
172
|
+
For each affected population, assess:
|
|
173
|
+
|
|
174
|
+
| Dimension | Questions to Ask |
|
|
175
|
+
|-----------|----------------|
|
|
176
|
+
| **Nature of impact** | What kind of harm could occur? Financial, physical, psychological, reputational, loss of rights, discrimination? |
|
|
177
|
+
| **Severity** | How serious is the worst-case impact? |
|
|
178
|
+
| **Breadth** | How many individuals could be affected? |
|
|
179
|
+
| **Reversibility** | Can the harm be corrected if the AI system makes an error? |
|
|
180
|
+
| **Duration** | Is the impact short-term or long-lasting? |
|
|
181
|
+
| **Consent and awareness** | Are affected individuals aware AI is being used? Did they consent? |
|
|
182
|
+
| **Human oversight** | Is there a meaningful human review of AI outputs before they affect individuals? |
|
|
183
|
+
| **Recourse** | Can individuals challenge AI decisions? Is there an appeal process? |
|
|
184
|
+
|
|
185
|
+
**Step 4: Classify Impact Level**
|
|
186
|
+
|
|
187
|
+
| Level | Criteria | Examples |
|
|
188
|
+
|-------|----------|---------|
|
|
189
|
+
| **Low** | Limited impact; easily reversible; non-vulnerable individuals; AI is advisory only; robust human oversight | Product recommendation engine; internal productivity tool |
|
|
190
|
+
| **Medium** | Moderate impact; partially reversible; some vulnerable individuals may be affected; AI has significant weight in decisions | Customer service routing; content moderation; credit risk scoring with human review |
|
|
191
|
+
| **High** | Significant impact; hard-to-reverse; vulnerable individuals; AI drives decisions with limited human review; affects fundamental rights | Automated hiring decisions; medical diagnosis AI; benefits eligibility AI; criminal risk scoring; biometric identification |
|

## Part 4: Integration with EU AI Act
|
|
245
|
+
|
|
246
|
+
ISO 42001 AISIA aligns closely with **EU AI Act Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment (FRIA)** requirements for high-risk AI systems. Organisations preparing for EU AI Act compliance can use their 42001 AISIA as a foundation — extending it to cover the specific FRIA requirements for EU high-risk AI system categories:
