1. Ülevaade

,
Artikkel 22 1.
Kolmandates riikides asutatud pakkujad peavad enne oma suure riskiga tehisintellektisüsteemide liidu turul kättesaadavaks tegemist määrama kirjaliku volitusega liidus asutatud volitatud esindaja.
Artikkel 22 2.
Pakkuja võimaldab oma volitatud esindajal täita pakkujalt saadud volituses kindlaksmääratud ülesandeid.
Artikkel 22 3.

Volitatud esindaja täidab pakkujalt saadud volituses kindlaksmääratud ülesandeid. Volitatud esindaja esitab turujärelevalveasutuste nõudmisel neile volituse koopia pädeva asutuse poolt osutatud liidu institutsioonide ühes ametlikus keeles. Käesoleva määruse kohaldamisel annab volitus volitatud esindajale õiguse täita järgmisi ülesandeid:

a) 

kontrollida, et koostatud on artiklis 47 osutatud ELi vastavusdeklaratsioon ja artiklis 11 osutatud tehniline dokumentatsioon ning et pakkuja on teostanud asjakohase vastavushindamismenetluse;

b) 

säilitada pädevate asutuste ja artikli 74 lõikes 10 osutatud riiklike asutuste või organite jaoks kättesaadavana kümne aasta jooksul pärast suure riskiga tehisintellektisüsteemi turule laskmist või kasutusele võtmist pakkuja kontaktandmed, mida kasutades on volitatud esindaja nimetatud, artiklis 47 osutatud ELi vastavusdeklaratsiooni koopia, tehnilise dokumentatsiooni, ning kui see on asjakohane, teada antud asutuse väljastatud sertifikaadi;

c) 

esitada pädevale asutusele põhjendatud taotluse korral kogu teave ja dokumentatsioon, sealhulgas käesoleva lõigu punktis b osutatud teave ja dokumentatsioon, mis on vajalik, et tõendada suure riskiga tehisintellektisüsteemi vastavust 2. jaos sätestatud nõuetele, sealhulgas pakkuda juurdepääsu suure riskiga tehisintellektisüsteemi automaatselt genereeritud logidele, nagu on osutatud artikli 12 lõikes 1, niivõrd, kuivõrd sellised logid on pakkuja kontrolli all;

d) 

teha pädevate asutustega põhjendatud taotluse korral koostööd kõigis toimingutes, mida pädev asutus seoses suure riskiga tehisintellektisüsteemiga ette võtab; eelkõige selleks, et vähendada ja maandada suure riskiga tehisintellektisüsteemist tulenevaid riske;

e) 

täita kohaldataval juhul artikli 49 lõikes 1 osutatud registreerimiskohustusi, või kui registreerimise teeb pakkuja ise, tagada VIII lisa A. jao punktis 3 osutatud teabe õigsus.

Volitusega antakse volitatud esindajale õigus, et tema poole võivad pöörduda lisaks pakkujale või selle asemel, pädevad asutused kõigis küsimustes, mis on seotud käesoleva määruse järgimise tagamisega.
Artikkel 22 4.
Volitatud esindaja peatab volituse, kui ta arvab või tal on põhjust arvata, et pakkuja tegevus on vastuolus tema käesolevast määrusest tulenevate kohustustega. Sellisel juhul teatab ta volituse lõpetamisest ja selle põhjustest viivitamata asjakohasele turujärelevalveasutusele ning kui see on kohaldatav, asjaomasele teada antud asutusele.

∙ Dedicated compliance team
∙ Automated compliance monitoring

SCR-CMM

Level 0 Not Performed

Practices are non-existent, based on the inability to demonstrate an implemented and operational capability. A reasonable person would conclude the control is not being performed.

Level 1 Performed Informally

SCR-CMM Level 1 criteria definitions are not available for this control:
▪ A reasonable person would conclude this control requires a structured process.
▪ At this level of maturity, the "ad hoc" nature of performing a capability informally would indicate the intent of the control is not met due to a lack of consistency and formality.

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Compliance (CPL) capabilities are requirements-driven, but are not standardized across the entity (e.g., local/regional level consistency). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with CPL domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with CPL domain capabilities are documented and maintained by process owners.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with CPL domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Compliance management controls-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Compliance management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.
▪ External compliance requirements for cybersecurity and data privacy are identified and documented, based on applicable laws, regulations and contractual obligations.

Level 3 Well Defined

Compliance (CPL) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with CPL domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with CPL domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ A Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain CPL domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of governance, risk management and compliance operations (e.g., GRC platform).
▪ The entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, works with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with CPL domain capabilities to address Minimum Compliance Requirements (MCR) (e.g., applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements) and Discretionary Security Requirements (DSR) (e.g., entity-required controls).
▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to ensure the organization is able to demonstrate security, compliance and/or resilience capability conformity with applicable cybersecurity and data protection laws, regulations and/or contractual obligations.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Compliance (CPL) capabilities, in addition to being standardized across the entity and centrally managed to ensure consistency across Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD), efforts are metrics driven to provide sufficient insight for decision makers to predict optimal performance, ensure continued operations and/or identify areas for improvement. Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Applicable SCR-CMM Level 3 (Well Defined) capabilities are implemented and operational.
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Risk Indicators (KRIs).
▪ Scope of metrics, KPIs and KRIs covers organization-wide cybersecurity and data protection controls, including functions performed by third-parties.
▪ Organizational leadership maintains a formal process to objectively review and respond to metrics, KPIs and KRIs (e.g., monthly or quarterly review).
▪ Based on metrics analysis, process improvement recommendations are submitted for review and are handled in accordance with change control processes.
▪ Business and technical stakeholders are involved in reviewing and approving proposed changes to evolve capabilities.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ Level 5 capabilities should be considered “world-class” where the control builds on Level 4 capabilities, but are continuously improving through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.
▪ While it may be possible to develop responsive capabilities for this control through the use of AI and/or ML technologies, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.

▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to appoint localized representation with a physical presence in localities, as required by applicable laws and/or regulations.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 4 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a quantitatively-controlled process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ While it may be possible to develop “metrics-driven” capabilities for this control, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ Level 5 capabilities should be considered “world-class” where the control builds on Level 4 capabilities, but are continuously improving through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.
▪ While it may be possible to develop responsive capabilities for this control through the use of AI and/or ML technologies, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.

SCR-CMM

Level 0 Not Performed

Practices are non-existent, based on the inability to demonstrate an implemented and operational capability. A reasonable person would conclude the control is not being performed.

Level 1 Performed Informally

SCR-CMM Level 1 criteria definitions are not available for this control:
▪ A reasonable person would conclude this control requires a structured process.
▪ At this level of maturity, the "ad hoc" nature of performing a capability informally would indicate the intent of the control is not met due to a lack of consistency and formality.

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Compliance (CPL) capabilities are requirements-driven, but are not standardized across the entity (e.g., local/regional level consistency). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with CPL domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with CPL domain capabilities are documented and maintained by process owners.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with CPL domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Compliance management controls-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Compliance management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.
▪ External compliance requirements for cybersecurity and data privacy are identified and documented, based on applicable laws, regulations and contractual obligations.

Level 3 Well Defined

Compliance (CPL) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with CPL domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
