ISO/IEC 42001 · Control A.2.3 · Priority: high · Component: Organizational controls

### What this control covers

AI-related policies shall be aligned with existing organizational policies, objectives, and governance commitments.

### Why it matters

Risk is the language an executive team understands; this control connects technical reality to board-level decisions and budget allocation.

### How to implement

#### AWS

Codify the policy intent as **SCPs, AWS Config conformance packs, and Security Hub standards** so the cloud enforces what the document says.

#### Azure

Codify in **Azure Policy initiatives** (built-in regulatory compliance for CIS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA) and assign at management-group level.

#### On-premises

Maintain a policy library with a documented review cadence (annual minimum); store in your GRC tool with attestation tracking. Map each policy to controls so an audit pull cites the exact policy clause.

### Evidence to collect

-   `policy_document` — A signed, version-controlled policy stating leadership intent and the named owner.

Approved AI governance policies and related corporate policies evidence alignment between AI objectives, organizational obligations, and governance commitments. Evidence should demonstrate cross-reference, approval, and maintenance of policy alignment. Focus: Alignment with other organizational policies.
