Status quo · late 2026

What has changed — and why it matters now

01

Enforcement started

EU AI Act high-risk obligations became enforceable on 2 August 2026: risk management, data governance, logging, transparency, human oversight, cybersecurity and post-market monitoring. Multi-agent chains are explicitly in scope.

02

ISO 42001 is the common language

Certification is accelerating because it evidences the AI Act, NIST AI RMF and customer due diligence at once — and it reuses your ISO 27001 machinery.

03

Agents need governing

Agent inventories, per-agent identity, MCP gateways, action logging and containment boundaries are the new controls; shadow AI is the new shadow IT.

How we approach it

Our method for AI Governance & AIMS

01Inventory & classifyEvery model, agent, MCP connection and vendor AI feature, classified by AI Act risk tier and business impact.
02AIMS designISO 42001 clauses and Annex A controls, integrated with the ISMS; roles, policies, impact assessments.
03AssureAI red teaming (PyRIT), model security reviews, bias and robustness testing, documentation packs.
04OperateMonitoring, incident handling, post-market surveillance, human oversight procedures.
05Certify & complyISO 42001 certification support, AI Act conformity evidence, regulator engagement.
