The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into industries worldwide presents both opportunities and challenges, particularly in governance, security, and ethical considerations. Recognizing the growing importance of responsible AI management, SGS was invited by ISACA Amman, Jordan Chapter to be part of an insightful seminar on ISO 42001 – the international standard for AI Management, Governance, and Security.



Key Takeaways from the Seminar
The event brought together 40 to 50 professionals, including industry leaders, auditors, and cybersecurity experts, to explore AI governance frameworks and security challenges. Some of the key highlights included:
- The Role of ISO 42001 in AI Management: Participants gained a comprehensive understanding of how this standard ensures the responsible design, use, and monitoring of AI systems.
- Ensuring AI Security & Compliance: Experts discussed strategies to align AI initiatives with global best practices to mitigate risks, prevent biases, and ensure cybersecurity in AI-driven solutions.
- Future Challenges in AI Governance: The seminar featured engaging discussions on emerging threats in AI ethics, compliance gaps, and the need for regulatory advancements in AI governance.
- The Impact of AI Governance on Businesses and Society: Discussions emphasized how AI governance plays a pivotal role in maintaining corporate responsibility, fostering public trust, and ensuring ethical AI adoption across industries.
- Best Practices for AI Risk Management: Experts shared case studies and real-world applications on how organizations can proactively identify, assess, and mitigate AI-related risks through structured governance models.
Strong AI governance fosters trust, responsibility, and keeps organizations ahead through ethical compliance.

AI governance isn’t just about ticking compliance boxes — it’s about creating transparent, ethical, and resilient AI systems that people can trust and rely on. ISO 42001 gives organizations a clear roadmap to manage AI risks, build accountability and strengthen confidence in AI-powered solutions.
