A practitioner-grade, domain-level crosswalk between ISO/IEC 42001 and ISO/IEC 27001. Understand how these compliance standards overlap to streamline your audit programs.
ISO/IEC 42001:2023 was deliberately written on the same Harmonized/High-Level Structure as ISO/IEC 27001:2022, using an equivalent Annex-A-style controls annex; this structural kinship is stated in the standards' own scope and introduction sections, not inferred by this author.
Both are the organizational-controls layer of their respective management systems, sharing the same High-Level-Structure role and near-identical naming.
AI Annex B's technical controls (data quality, robustness) parallel ISO's Technological Controls theme, but Annex B also covers socio-technical topics — bias, fairness, human oversight — with no clean ISO 27001 counterpart, so the fit is partial.
