Articolo 54 Rappresentanti autorizzati dei fornitori di modelli di IA per finalità generali

-

1. Panoramica

,
Titolo Regolamentazione
Articolo 54 1.
Prima di immettere sul mercato dell'Unione un modello di IA per finalità generali, i fornitori stabiliti in paesi terzi nominano, mediante mandato scritto, un rappresentante autorizzato stabilito nell'Unione.
Articolo 54 2.
Il fornitore consente al suo rappresentante autorizzato di eseguire i compiti specificati nel mandato ricevuto dal fornitore.
Articolo 54 3.

Il rappresentante autorizzato esegue i compiti specificati nel mandato ricevuto dal fornitore. Fornisce una copia del mandato all'ufficio per l'IA, su richiesta, in una delle lingue ufficiali delle istituzioni dell'Unione. Ai fini del presente regolamento, il mandato consente al rappresentante autorizzato di eseguire i compiti seguenti:

a) 

verificare che la documentazione tecnica di cui all'allegato XI sia stata redatta e che tutti gli obblighi di cui all'articolo 53 e, se del caso, all'articolo 55 siano stati adempiuti dal fornitore;

b) 

tenere a disposizione dell'ufficio per l'IA e delle autorità nazionali competenti una copia della documentazione tecnica di cui all'allegato XI per un periodo di 10 anni dalla data in cui il modello di IA per finalità generali è stato immesso sul mercato e i dati di contatto del fornitore che ha nominato il rappresentante autorizzato;

c) 

fornire all'ufficio per l'IA, su richiesta motivata, tutte le informazioni e la documentazione, comprese quelle di cui alla lettera b), necessarie per dimostrare la conformità agli obblighi di cui al presente capo;

d) 

cooperare con l'ufficio per l'IA e le autorità competenti, su richiesta motivata, in qualsiasi azione intrapresa da queste ultime in relazione al modello di IA per finalità generali, anche quando il modello è integrato nei sistemi di IA immessi sul mercato o messi in servizio nell'Unione.

Articolo 54 4.
Il mandato consente al rappresentante autorizzato di essere interlocutore, in aggiunta o in sostituzione del fornitore, nei confronti dell'ufficio per l'IA o delle autorità competenti per tutte le questioni relative al rispetto del presente regolamento.
Articolo 54 5.
Il rappresentante autorizzato pone fine al mandato se ritiene o ha motivi di ritenere che il fornitore agisca in contrasto con i propri obblighi a norma del presente regolamento. In tal caso, comunica immediatamente anche all'ufficio per l'IA la cessazione del mandato e i relativi motivi.
Articolo 54 6.
L’obbligo di cui al presente articolo non si applica ai fornitori di modelli di IA per finalità generali rilasciati con licenza libera e open source che consentono l’accesso, l’uso, la modifica e la distribuzione del modello e i cui parametri, compresi i pesi, le informazioni sull’architettura del modello e le informazioni sull’uso del modello, sono resi pubblici, tranne nel caso in cui i modelli di IA per finalità generali presentino rischi sistemici.

SCF Localized Representation

Description

Mechanisms exist to appoint localized representation with a physical presence in the host country, as required by applicable laws and/or regulations.

Possible Solutions & Considerations

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

∙ Document applicable regulatory requirements in a checklist

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

∙ Compliance checklist
∙ Annual compliance review

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

∙ Compliance management program
∙ Regulatory mapping
∙ Compliance calendar

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

∙ GRC solution (e.g., SCFConnect, Cyturus, SureCloud, SimpleRisk, Ignyte, ZenGRC, Galvanize, MetricStream, Archer, etc.)
∙ Compliance team

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

∙ GRC solution (e.g., SCFConnect, Cyturus, SureCloud, SimpleRisk, Ignyte, ZenGRC, Galvanize, MetricStream, Archer, etc.)
∙ 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 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.
