No respeitante aos sistemas de IA de risco elevado enumerados no anexo III, ponto 1, se, ao demonstrar a conformidade de um sistema de IA de risco elevado com os requisitos estabelecidos na secção 2, o prestador tiver aplicado as normas harmonizadas a que se refere o artigo 40.o, ou, se for caso disso, as especificações comuns a que se refere o artigo 41.o, o prestador deve optar por um dos seguintes procedimentos:
a)
O controlo interno a que se refere o anexo VI; ou
b)
A avaliação do sistema de gestão da qualidade e a avaliação da documentação técnica, com a participação de um organismo notificado, a que se refere o anexo VII.
Ao demonstrar a conformidade de um sistema de IA de risco elevado com os requisitos estabelecidos na secção 2, o prestador deve seguir o procedimento de avaliação da conformidade estabelecido no anexo VII quando:
a)
Não existam as normas harmonizadas a que se refere o artigo 40.o e não estejam disponíveis as especificações comuns a que se refere o artigo 41.o;
b)
O prestador não tenha aplicado, ou tenha aplicado apenas parcialmente, a norma harmonizada;
c)
Existam as especificações comuns a que se refere a alínea a), mas o prestador não as tenha aplicado;
d)
Uma ou mais das normas harmonizadas a que se refere a alínea a) tenham sido publicadas com uma restrição, e apenas no tocante à parte da norma que foi objeto da restrição.
Para efeitos do procedimento de avaliação da conformidade a que se refere o anexo VII, o prestador pode escolher qualquer um dos organismos notificados. Contudo, caso o sistema de IA de risco elevado se destine a ser colocado em serviço por autoridades competentes em matéria de aplicação da lei, imigração ou asilo ou por instituições, órgãos e organismos da UE, a autoridade de fiscalização do mercado a que se refere o artigo 74.o, n.os 8 ou 9, consoante aplicável, atua como organismo notificado.
|
|
Artigo 43.o 2.
|
Em relação aos sistemas de IA de risco elevado enumerados no anexo III, pontos 2 a 8, os prestadores devem seguir o procedimento de avaliação da conformidade baseado no controlo interno a que se refere o anexo VI, que não prevê a participação de um organismo notificado.
|
|
Artigo 43.o 3.
|
Em relação aos sistemas de IA de risco elevado abrangidos pela legislação de harmonização da União enumerada na secção A do anexo I, o prestador do sistema segue o procedimento de avaliação da conformidade aplicável nos termos da legislação de harmonização da União aplicável. Os requisitos estabelecidos na secção 2 do presente capítulo aplicam-se a esses sistemas de IA de risco elevado e devem fazer parte dessa avaliação. É igualmente realizada a avaliação do sistema de gestão da qualidade previsto no artigo 17.o, sendo aplicáveis os pontos 3, 4.3, 4.4 e 4.5, o ponto 4.6, quinto parágrafo, e o ponto 5 do anexo VII. Para efeitos dessa avaliação da conformidade, os organismos notificados nos termos da legislação de harmonização da União enumerada na secção A do anexo I ficam habilitados a avaliar a conformidade dos sistemas de IA de risco elevado com os requisitos estabelecidos na secção 2 do presente capítulo, contanto que a conformidade desses organismos notificados com os requisitos estabelecidos no artigo 31.o, n.os 4, 5, 10 e 11, tenha sido avaliada no contexto do procedimento de notificação previsto na referida legislação de harmonização da União aplicável, comprovado mediante a avaliação realizada no âmbito da notificação existente. Sem prejuízo do disposto no artigo 28.o, os organismos notificados que tenham sido notificados nos termos dos atos enumerados na lista da legislação de harmonização da União enumerada na secção A do anexo I solicitam a designação nos termos da secção 4 do presente capítulo, até 28 de janeiro de 2028. Sempre que a legislação de harmonização da União enumerada na secção A do anexo I dê ao fabricante do produto a opção de recorrer a uma avaliação da conformidade em que não participem terceiros, desde que esse fabricante tenha aplicado as normas harmonizadas para garantir a conformidade com os requisitos previstos nesses atos, o fabricante apenas pode recorrer a tal opção se tiver também aplicado normas harmonizadas ou, se for caso disso, especificações comuns a que se refere o artigo 41.o que abranjam todos os requisitos estabelecidos na secção 2 do presente capítulo. A classificação de um produto como sistema de IA de risco elevado nos termos do artigo 6.o, n.o 1, faz-se sem prejuízo das opções de escolha relativas ao procedimento de avaliação da conformidade de que dispõem os fabricantes de produtos abrangidos pela legislação de harmonização da União enumerada na secção A do anexo I, nomeadamente a opção de recorrer a normas harmonizadas, se for caso disso. Os fabricantes de tais produtos não são obrigados a escolher um procedimento de avaliação da conformidade que envolva uma avaliação da conformidade por terceiros apenas porque o produto inclui um sistema de IA de risco elevado enquanto componente de segurança, a menos que tal seja exigido pela legislação de harmonização da União enumerada na secção A do anexo I. Caso um sistema de IA de risco elevado esteja abrangido pela legislação de harmonização da União enumerada na secção A do anexo I e pertença a uma das categorias enumeradas no anexo III, o prestador desse sistema deve seguir o procedimento de avaliação da conformidade aplicável nos termos da legislação de harmonização da União aplicável enumerada na secção A do anexo I.

|
Artigo 43.o 4.
|
Os sistemas de IA de risco elevado que já tenham sido sujeitos a um procedimento de avaliação da conformidade devem ser sujeitos a um novo procedimento de avaliação da conformidade caso sejam substancialmente modificados, independentemente de o sistema modificado se destinar a distribuição ulterior ou continuar a ser utilizado pelo atual responsável pela implantação. No caso dos sistemas de IA de risco elevado que continuam a aprender após a colocação no mercado ou a colocação em serviço, as alterações ao sistema de IA de risco elevado e ao seu desempenho que tenham sido predeterminadas pelo prestador aquando da avaliação da conformidade inicial e façam parte das informações contidas na documentação técnica a que se refere o anexo IV, ponto 2, alínea f), não constituem uma modificação substancial.

Conformity Assessment
Description
Mechanisms exist to conduct assessments to demonstrate security, compliance and/or resilience capability conformity with applicable cybersecurity and data protection laws, regulations and/or contractual obligations.
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. ▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to assigned cybersecurity and/or data protection controls to comply with specific compliance requirements.
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 conduct assessments 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
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. ▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to assigned cybersecurity and/or data protection controls to comply with specific compliance requirements.
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 conduct assessments 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
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.
