FAICP (Framework for AI Cybersecurity Practices)
The FAICP is a response from the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) to the EU AI Act.
Below are some of the key takeaways:
🌐 The framework focuses on aligning rules for AI systems and tools in the EU.
🔒There is a focus on robust cybersecurity practices to ensure ICT infrastructures using AI tools/systems (throughout the AI life-cycle) are secure.
🎯 The framework consists of 3 layers: Cybersecurity Foundations (layer 1), AI Fundamentals and Cybersecurity (layer 2), and Sector-Specific Cybersecurity Good Practices (layer 3).
🛡️Layer 1 focuses on securing ICT-hosted ecosystems using ‘basic’ cybersecurity practices. The following areas are covered by this layer: security management, certification, legislation, and policies affecting AI systems.
🤖 Layer 2 focuses on AI systems within the ICT infrastructure and covers: threats, risks, legislation, standards, AI legislation, assets, threat assessments, security management, and ethical considerations.
🏢Layer 3 provides sector-specific recommendations for addressing cybersecurity issues in AI systems and tools across various sectors. And provides best practices for various sectors (e.g. automotive, health, maritime, and finance).
The framework also references #ISO27001.
