ISO 42005 is the international standard for performing an AI Impact Assessment (AIIA) — a systematic process for assessing the impacts of an AI system on people, groups, society and the environment.
While ISO 42001 defines the management framework for AI, ISO 42005 expands the depth of impact analysis — what can go wrong, who might be harmed, and how to prevent unintended damage.
The EU AI Act requires High Risk AI to perform an impact assessment. ISO 42005 is the practical tool for meeting this requirement. CBE guides both together.
Assessing potential harm, discrimination and bias.
Analyzing gaps, outcome equality and algorithmic discrimination.
Documenting how the AI makes decisions and what their impact is.
Identifying failure scenarios and preventing unintended harm.
AI systems in fields like credit, employment, medicine — AIIA is mandatory under the EU AI Act.
