SGS supports compliance with the EU AI Act, Data Act and Cyber Resilience Act through readiness assessments, governance frameworks and independent evaluation. This helps ensure your AI systems meet legal requirements while demonstrating transparency, accountability and regulatory alignment.
As organizations integrate data and artificial intelligence into critical operations, they face increasing risk across safety, compliance, transparency and performance. Evolving regulation, complex data ecosystems and opaque AI models make it difficult to demonstrate that systems are reliable, secure and aligned with global expectations.
We help organizations build and verify trustworthy data and AI systems through SGS DIGITAL TRUST. Our services support the journey from readiness and governance through independent evaluation to certification, helping you demonstrate compliance, manage risk and establish trust across the AI lifecycle.
We recognize that the different AI risks demand specialized safeguards and help you to map your ecosystem against the world’s most rigorous frameworks:
- AI governance and trust
Establish a baseline for responsible AI using the ISO/IEC 42001 (AI Management System), NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and OECD AI Principles.
- Mandatory regulatory compliance
Support alignment with evolving legal requirements such as the EU AI Act, the Data Act and the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA).
- Data integrity and privacy
Secure your training pipelines and user data through GDPR and the ISO/IEC 5259 series for ensuring optimal management and quality of the data used by AI.
- Sector-specific safety
For high-stakes environments, we provide specialized services, such as ISO/PAS 8800 (road Vehicle Safety for AI) and assurance of AI-Enabled Medical Devices.
Organizations need training, gap analysis, independent assurance and certification to demonstrate that their systems are safe, secure and reliable. We help you build trust across your data and AI ecosystem through a structured journey from readiness to evaluation and certification.
