Details

AI21 Labs became the first company developing and operating an AI cloud platform to obtain ISO 42001 certification. The company already holds ISO27001, ISO27017, ISO27018, and a second SOC2, with security lead Nissim Maatouk leading this framework.

ISO 42001 is a framework that addresses the responsibilities and controls of companies building AI, rather than companies using AI. AI21 Labs emphasized that this certification serves as a device proving the quality, transparency, security, and data privacy of its development process.

The scope of application is as follows.

  • Covers the Jamba model family, API, SDK, browser plugins, and Studio
  • Operation of a scalable AI cloud platform based on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Kubernetes
  • Supports deployment, identification, usage, and billing management through Studio's RAG workflows and API key integration

In technical verification, technical lead Daniel Gissin mentioned comparisons with Meta's Llama and others, along with evaluation based on 500 test cases. The data team led by CTO Barak Lenz adjusted language, architecture, and machine targets during the pretraining stage, and reflected responses to data poisoning and inversion attacks.

The model operates in traceless mode, and is designed to reduce hallucination through a method of cross-validating results and alignment benchmarking. The company stated that this design increases trust in deployment on customer infrastructure and in responsible AI development.
