AI Act (EU Regulation 2024/1689 on Artificial Intelligence)

The AI Act is the world’s first comprehensive regulatory framework dedicated to artificial intelligence and applies to those who develop, place on the market, or use AI systems within the European Union.

The Regulation adopts a risk-based approach: the higher the potential impact of a system on people’s rights and safety, the stricter the technical, organizational and documentation requirements become.

The AI Act applies not only to providers developing systems, but also to organizations using them in a professional context (deployers), with responsibilities extending across the entire AI value chain.

Failure to comply may result in significant fines, the inability to market the system within the EU and significant reputational consequences.

The Regulation classifies AI systems into 4 risk levels:

Unacceptable risk: prohibited practices (e.g. social scoring, cognitive manipulation and certain forms of biometric recognition).
High risk: systems impacting safety or fundamental rights (e.g. recruitment, credit scoring, critical infrastructures, medical devices).
Limited risk: systems subject to transparency obligations (e.g. chatbots, AI-generated content requiring labeling).
Minimal risk: most applications, with no specific obligations.

The Regulation also introduces dedicated requirements for General-Purpose AI (GPAI) models.

Argo Cyber helps organizations understand their actual regulatory exposure by determining which category their AI systems fall into and defining a compliance pathway proportionate to the level of risk.

Key Obligations Under the AI Act

Depending on the applicable risk level, organizations subject to the Regulation are required to:

Implement a Risk Management system throughout the entire lifecycle of the AI system.
Ensure the quality and governance of the data used for training, validation and testing purposes.
Prepare technical documentation and traceability records, including automated event logging mechanisms.
Ensure transparency and provide adequate information to users and affected parties.
Establish human oversight mechanisms for high-risk AI systems.
Ensure the accuracy, robustness and cybersecurity of AI systems throughout their operational lifecycle.
Conduct conformity assessments and, where required, register systems in EU databases before placing them on the market.

Argo Cyber’s AI Act Compliance Services

Argo Cyber provides a comprehensive AI Act compliance service designed to support SMEs, organizations and large enterprises in the secure and compliant management of artificial intelligence systems.

Our approach is based on an integrated model combining governance, compliance and AI system security under continuous legal and technical oversight.

Key areas of intervention include:

AI system inventory and classification: we map AI systems currently in use or under development, assigning the appropriate risk level and identifying the applicable obligations under the European Regulation.
AI risk management and governance: we design and implement proportionate risk management frameworks by embedding roles, responsibilities and control procedures into business processes.
Data governance and dataset quality: we establish controls over the origin, quality and management of data used by AI systems, reducing the risk of non-compliant use and biased decision-making.
AI system security and robustness: we assess model resilience against manipulation and adversarial attacks, integrating cybersecurity into AI governance processes.
Documentation and regulatory compliance: we support the preparation of technical documentation, disclosures and all requirements necessary for conformity assessments.
Human oversight and training: we define human oversight mechanisms and deliver AI literacy programs for personnel involved in the management and use of AI systems.

Drawing on extensive expertise in information security and a deep understanding of European regulatory frameworks, Argo Cyber supports both public and private organizations in achieving full AI Act compliance through scalable and targeted initiatives.

The compliance journey is structured into four phases:

Assessment and AI system classification

We assess the applicability of the Regulation, map AI systems, assign the appropriate risk level and define a prioritized compliance roadmap.

Design and implementation of controls

We design and implement the required technical and organizational measures, including risk management, data governance, security controls and oversight mechanisms.

Documentation and conformity assessment

We prepare technical documentation and support conformity assessments, including any required registration procedures.

Continuous monitoring and ongoing support

We maintain compliance over time through continuous monitoring activities, regulatory updates, control reviews and audit support.

Through a multidisciplinary specialist approach, Argo Cyber helps organizations manage artificial intelligence in a secure, transparent and compliant manner, reducing operational and regulatory risks without slowing innovation and growth.
