Authentic PECB Certification Exam ISO-IEC-42001-Lead-Auditor Questions Answers

Scenario 9 (continued):

Scenario 9: Securisai, located in Tallinn. Estonia, specializes in the development of automated cybersecurity solutions that utilize AI systems. The company recently implemented an artificial intelligence management system AIMS in accordance with ISO/IEC 42001. In doing so, the company aimed to manage its Al-driven systems’ capabilities to detect and mitigate cyber threats more efficiently and ethically. As part of its commitment to upholding the highest standards of Al use and management, Securisai underwent a certification audit to demonstrate compliance with ISO/IEC 42001.

The audit process comprised two main stages: the initial or stage 1 audit focused on reviewing Securisai's documentation, policies, and procedures related to its AIMS. This review laid the groundwork for the stage 2 audit, which involved a comprehensive, on-site evaluation

of the actual implementation and effectiveness of the AIMS within Securisai's operations. The goal was to observe the AIMS in operation, ensuring that it not only existed on paper but was effectively integrated into the company's daily activities and cybersecurity strategies.

After the audit, Roger, Securisai's internal auditor, addressed the action plans devised to rectify nonconformities identified during the certification audit. He developed a long term strategy, highlighting key AIMS processes for triennial audits. Roger's internal audits play a

key role in advancing Securisai's goals by employing a systematic and disciplined method to assess and boost the efficiency of risk

management, governance processes, and strategic decision-making. Roger reported his findings directly to Securisai's top management.

Following the successful rectification of nonconformities, Securisai was officially certified against ISO/IEC 42001.

Recently, the company decided to transfer its ISO/IEC 42001 certification registration from one certification body to another despite being initially bound by a long-term agreement with the current certification body. This decision was motivated by the desire to partner with a certification body that offers deeper insights and expertise in the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity.

To ensure a smooth transition and uphold its certification status, Securisai is diligently compiling the required documentation for submission to the new certification body. This includes a formal request, the most recent audit report underscoring its adherence to ISO/IEC 42001, the latest corrective action plan that highlights its continuous efforts toward improvement, and a copy of its current valid certification registration.

A year following Securisai's initial certification audit, a subsequent audit was carried out by the certification body on its AIMS. The

purpose of this audit was to assess compliance with ISO/IEC 42001 and verify the ongoing improvement of the AIMS. The audit team

concluded that Securisai's AIMS consistently meets the requirements set by ISO/IEC 42001.

Question:

Based on Scenario 9, what should Securisai’s certification be?

Based on Scenario 8, did Sharona and the audit team address all essential aspects during the closing meeting?

Scenario 8: VeridicAI. based in San Francisco. USA, specializes in market research using Al technologies to analyze customer behavior. Founded in 2023, the company

employs natural language processing, machine learning, and predictive analytics to provide real time insights to a range of businesses. VeridicAI has implemented an

artificial intelligence management system AIMS based on ISO/IEC 42001 to manage its Al technologies effectively. The AIMS scope includes select departments within

the company, for which it has received a four-year certification against ISO/IEC 42001. Committed to transparency. VeridicAI publicly shares details of this certification.

As the certification nears its end, VeridicAI is preparing for an audit to renew its certification.

The audit process was led by Sharona, the audit team leader, who is a full-time employee of the certification body. Sharona and the audit team undertook all planned

audit activities. Afterward, they organized the closing meeting with VeridicAl’s management. During the meeting, Sharona and the team made a recap on audit

objectives and scope, presented the audit findings and conclusions, presented identified nonconformities, and organized a session for questions and answers for the

auditee.

VeridicAI received a conditional recommendation for certification, underscoring its compliance with the industry's standards. Sharona confirmed that the company met

the essential requirements but noted some identified minor nonconformities. In response, VeridicAI compiled and submitted a comprehensive action plan that

addresses all identified nonconformities within a designated timeframe. Because of the comprehensive action plan, Sharona did not see the need for an additional on-

site visit to verify the effectiveness of the action plan.

Sharona played an integral role in the certification decision process. Her thorough understanding of VeridicAI's operations, gained from the audit, guided the

certification body towards a well-informed certification decision.

Scenario 3 (continued):

ArBank is a financial institution located in Brussels, Belgium, which offers a diverse range of banking and investment services to its clients. To ensure the continual improvement of its operations, ArBank has implemented a quality management system QMS based

on ISO 9001 and an artificial intelligence management system AIMS based on the requirements of ISO/IEC 42001.

Audrey, an experienced auditor, led an internal audit focused on the AIMS within ArBank. She assessed the chatbots integrated into the bank's website and mobile app, analyzing communications using big data technology to identify potential noncompliance, fraud, or unethical conduct. Instead of relying solely on the information provided by the chatbots, Audrey sought out evidence that would either confirm or challenge the validity of the data, ensuring her conclusions were based on reliable and accurate information. Her review of selected chatbot interactions confirmed they met their intended purpose.

For the specific context of ArBank's operations, Audrey utilized an Al system to assess the efficiency of the bank's digital infrastructure, focusing on tasks critical to the Finance Department. This Al system was able to analyze the functionality of chatbots integrated into ArBank's website and mobile app to determine if it adheres to ISO/IEC 42001 requirements and internal policies governing customer service in the banking sector.

In addition, Audrey conducted a deeper assessment of the bank’s AIMS. Her evaluation included observing different stages of the AIMS life cycle, from development to deployment, to ensure that roles and responsibilities were clearly defined and aligned with ArBank’s operational goals. She also evaluated the tools used to monitor and measure the performance of the AIMS.

Audrey continued the audit process by auditing ArBank's outsourced operations. Upon checking the contractual agreements between the two parties, Audrey decided that there was no need to gather audit evidence regarding the contractual agreement. She reviewed the company's processes for monitoring the quality of outsourced operations, determined whether appropriate governance processes are in place with regard to the engagement of outsourced persons or organizations, and reviewed and evaluated the company's plans in case of expected or unexpected termination of the outsourcing agreement.

Based on the scenario above, answer the following question:

Question:

Based on Scenario 3, which of the following AI technologies did Audrey employ to assess the efficiency of the bank's digital infrastructure?
