Članak 73. 1.
Dobavljači visokorizičnih UI sustava stavljenih na tržište Unije prijavljuju svaki ozbiljan incident tijelima za nadzor tržišta država članica u kojima je došlo do tog incidenta.
Članak 73. 2.
Prijavljivanje iz stavka 1. provodi se odmah nakon što je dobavljač utvrdio uzročno-posljedičnu vezu između UI sustava i ozbiljnog incidenta ili razumnu vjerojatnost takve veze, a u svakom slučaju najkasnije 15 dana nakon što je dobavljač ili, ako je primjenjivo, subjekt koji uvodi sustav, saznao za ozbiljni incident.

Razdobljem za prijavljivanje iz prvog podstavka uzima se u obzir težina ozbiljnog incidenta.

Članak 73. 3.
Neovisno o stavku 2. ovog članka, u slučaju raširene povrede ili ozbiljnog incidenta kako je definiran u članku 3. točki 49. podtočki (b), prijavljivanje iz stavka 1. ovog članka provodi se odmah, a najkasnije dva dana nakon što dobavljač ili, ako je primjenjivo, subjekt koji uvodi sustav, sazna za taj incident.
Članak 73. 4.
Neovisno o stavku 2., u slučaju smrti osobe prijavljivanje se provodi odmah nakon što je dobavljač ili subjekt koji uvodi sustav utvrdio uzročno-posljedičnu vezu između visokorizičnog UI sustava i ozbiljnog incidenta ili čim je posumnjao u postojanje takve veze, a najkasnije deset dana nakon datuma na koji je dobavljač ili, ako je primjenjivo, subjekt koji uvodi sustav, saznao za ozbiljni incident.
Članak 73. 5.
Ako je to potrebno kako bi se osiguralo pravodobno prijavljivanje, dobavljač ili, ako je primjenjivo, subjekt koji uvodi sustav može podnijeti početnu prijavu koja je nepotpuna, nakon koje slijedi potpuna prijava.
Članak 73. 6.
Nakon prijavljivanja ozbiljnog incidenta u skladu sa stavkom 1. dobavljač bez odgode provodi potrebne istrage u vezi s ozbiljnim incidentom i dotičnim UI sustavom. To uključuje procjenu rizika incidenta i korektivne mjere.

Dobavljač surađuje s nadležnim tijelima i, prema potrebi, s dotičnim prijavljenim tijelom tijekom istraga iz prvog podstavka i ne provodi istragu koja uključuje izmjenu dotičnog UI sustava na način koji bi mogao utjecati na naknadnu evaluaciju uzroka incidenta prije nego što o takvom djelovanju obavijesti nadležna tijela.

Članak 73. 7.
Nakon primitka obavijesti o ozbiljnom incidentu iz članka 3. točke 49. podtočke (c) relevantno tijelo za nadzor tržišta o tome obavješćuje nacionalna tijela javne vlasti ili javna tijela iz članka 77. stavka 1. Komisija izrađuje namjenske smjernice za lakše ispunjavanje obveza utvrđenih u stavku 1. ovog članka. Te se smjernice izdaju do 2. kolovoza 2025. i redovito se ocjenjuju.
Članak 73. 8.
Tijelo za nadzor tržišta u roku od sedam dana od datuma na koji je primilo prijavu iz stavka 1. ovog članka poduzima odgovarajuće mjere, kako je predviđeno u članku 19. Uredbe (EU) 2019/1020, i slijedi postupke prijavljivanja predviđene u toj uredbi.
Članak 73. 9.
Za visokorizične UI sustave iz Priloga III. koje na tržište ili u upotrebu stavljaju dobavljači na koje se primjenjuju zakonodavni instrumenti Unije kojima se utvrđuju obveze izvješćivanja jednakovrijedne onima koje su utvrđene u ovoj Uredbi, prijavljivanje ozbiljnih incidenata ograničava se na ozbiljne incidente iz članka 3. točke 49. podtočke (c).
Članak 73. 10.
Za visokorizične UI sustave koji su sigurnosne komponente uređaja ili su sami uređaji, a obuhvaćeni su uredbama (EU) 2017/745 i (EU) 2017/746, prijava ozbiljnih incidenata ograničava se na ozbiljne incidente iz članka 3. točke 49. podtočke (c) ove Uredbe i upućuje se nacionalnom nadležnom tijelu koje su u tu svrhu odabrale države članice u kojima je došlo do incidenta.
Članak 73. 11.
Nacionalna nadležna tijela odmah prijavljuju Komisiji svaki ozbiljan incident u skladu s člankom 20. Uredbe (EU) 2019/1020, bez obzira na to jesu li u vezi s njim poduzela mjere.

SCF Serious Incident Reporting For AI & Autonomous Technologies

Description

Mechanisms exist to report any serious incident involving operational Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Autonomous Technologies (AAT) to relevant authorities as to when and where the serious incident occurred, in accordance with mandated reporting timelines.

Possible Solutions & Considerations

Micro-Small Business (<10 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 1-2

∙ Report serious AI incidents to relevant authorities as required

Small Business (10-49 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 3-4

∙ Incident reporting procedure for serious AI incidents

Medium Business (50-249 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 5-6

∙ Formal serious AI incident reporting process
∙ Regulatory reporting contacts

Large Business (250-999 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 7-8

∙ AI incident response plan with regulatory reporting requirements
∙ Legal team involvement

Enterprise (> 1,000 staff) / BLS Firm Size Class 9

∙ Enterprise AI incident response program
∙ Automated regulatory notification workflows
∙ Legal and compliance integration

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

Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Technology (AAT) domain capabilities are ad hoc and inconsistent. Capability criteria associated with this control may include:
▪ Policies, standards & procedures associated with AAT domain capabilities provide limited coverage due to the depth and breadth of the existing documentation.
▪ AAT-related processes are expected to follow the organization's existing processes (e.g., incident response, asset management, change control and risk assessments).
▪ No formal Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team exists to provide AAT oversight, where the Chief Information Officer (CIO), or similar function, governs technology decisions what is acceptable for AAT within the organization.

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Technology (AAT) 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 AAT domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with AAT 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 AAT domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Artificial Intelligence (AI)-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Asset management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.

Level 3 Well Defined

Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Technology (AAT) 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 AAT 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 AAT domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ An Artificial Intelligence Governance (AIG) team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain AAT domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of AI governance, risk management and compliance operations (e.g., dedicated AI governance 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 AAT 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 report any serious incident involving operational AAT to relevant authorities as to when and where the serious incident occurred, in accordance with mandated reporting timelines.

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.

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

Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Technology (AAT) 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 AAT domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with AAT 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 AAT domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Artificial Intelligence (AI)-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Asset management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.

Level 3 Well Defined

Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Technology (AAT) 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 AAT 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 AAT domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ An Artificial Intelligence Governance (AIG) team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain AAT domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of AI governance, risk management and compliance operations (e.g., dedicated AI governance 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 AAT 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 perform an investigation when there is a serious incident involving operational AAT that documents a:
(1) Root Cause Analysis (RCA);
(2) Risk assessment of the incident; and
(3) Description of corrective actions taken, including measures implemented to prevent a recurrence of the incident.

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.
