    Trustworthiness in AI

    Guidance standard

    Focuses on transparency, bias detection, and robustness in artificial intelligence systems.

    Can you get certified to ISO 24028?

    ISO 24028 is a guidance standard. It offers recommendations rather than auditable requirements, so no accredited body can certify an organisation to ISO 24028. Any claim of "ISO 24028 certification" should be treated with caution.

    What is ISO 24028?

    ISO/IEC 24028 provides an overview of trustworthiness in artificial intelligence, covering key concepts such as transparency, explainability, controllability, and robustness. It establishes a framework for understanding and evaluating the trustworthiness of AI systems throughout their lifecycle.


    The standard addresses critical concerns around AI bias, fairness, and accountability, helping organizations build AI systems that stakeholders can trust.


    By implementing the guidance in ISO/IEC 24028, organizations can demonstrate their commitment to responsible AI development and deployment, meeting growing expectations from regulators, customers, and the public.
