AI Governance Gets Real: How ISO/IEC 42001 Elevates Cloud GRC

John DiMaria; Director of Operations Excellence

As AI rapidly integrates into cloud environments, organizations are facing governance, risk, and compliance challenges that traditional frameworks like ISO 27001 were never designed to address. In this episode, we explore how ISO/IEC 42001, the new international standard for an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS), provides a structured and auditable approach to responsible AI governance. You’ll learn how this standard helps organizations operationalize AI risk management while ensuring accountability, transparency, and compliance across modern cloud ecosystems.

We break down practical strategies for integrating ISO/IEC 42001 into existing GRC programs—without duplicating effort or creating parallel processes. 

John DiMaria interviews Tanya Tandon, Senior GRC & Risk Advisor for Viso Trust, who draws on real-world experience as an ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Auditor, offers actionable guidance for building trustworthy AI systems, preparing for certification, and managing third-party AI risks. Whether you’re a security leader, auditor, compliance professional, or AI practitioner, you’ll gain practical insights on embedding ISO 42001 requirements into daily AI operations and aligning them with broader enterprise GRC strategies.
