A.7.1: AI System Impact Assessment
Impact assessment performed before deployment + on change.

Problem
The gap A.7.1 closes
AI System Impact Assessment sits in the impact assessment surface, and ISO/IEC 42001 rates it high. Impact assessment performed before deployment + on change. For teams shipping LLM and agentic features, a control like this is only as good as the evidence that it was actually tested - an unverified control is a finding waiting for an auditor.
How Penaxtra approaches it
How Penaxtra delivers A.7.1
Penaxtra turns this ISO/IEC 42001 obligation into testable, recurring evidence: scheduled scans and posture checks produce findings tied to A.7.1, and the append-only audit log records what was tested and when, which is exactly what an assessor asks for. Every relevant finding is created with the ISO/IEC 42001 A.7.1 identifier already attached, so it lands in the audit-evidence pack mapped to the control rather than as a screenshot someone has to translate later. Where the same weakness touches another framework, the cross-framework overlap means one finding satisfies several control cells at once.

FAQ
Frequently asked
What is A.7.1 (AI System Impact Assessment)?
Impact assessment performed before deployment + on change. It is part of ISO/IEC 42001, rated high.
How does Penaxtra test for A.7.1?
Penaxtra turns this ISO/IEC 42001 obligation into testable, recurring evidence: scheduled scans and posture checks produce findings tied to A.7.1, and the append-only audit log records what was tested and when, which is exactly what an assessor asks for.
Does a finding for A.7.1 help with an audit?
Yes. Each finding is tagged with the ISO/IEC 42001 A.7.1 control identifier and exported in the PDF and JSON evidence pack, so it maps straight onto the auditor control list instead of needing manual translation.
