The AI and Cyber Security Association (the AICSA) is pleased to announce that it has become a Community Signatory of the CREST AI Charter and its Nine AI Principles.
By signing the charter, the AICSA joins a growing global community committed to the responsible use of AI across the cyber security profession. The charter establishes a shared foundation built around trust, transparency, accountability and assurance in AI-enabled cyber security services, giving organisations a common set of principles to stand behind as AI becomes a bigger part of how the industry works.
Why This Matters to the AICSA
The AICSA was created to support the convergence of AI and cyber security, and to help the profession navigate that convergence in a way that is safe, ethical and genuinely useful. Signing the CREST AI Charter is a natural extension of that purpose. Responsible AI is not something any single organisation can deliver on its own. It depends on a wider community agreeing on shared principles and holding themselves to them.
As a signatory, the AICSA is now recognised as part of this community and is listed alongside the founding signatories on the CREST AI Charter page. These signatories come from across the international cyber security industry and represent a collective commitment to trust, transparency, accountability and assurance in AI-enabled services.
A Word From Our Founder
“Signing the CREST AI Charter matters to us because responsible AI depends on collaboration rather than any one organisation acting alone. It relies on people and organisations across our profession agreeing on shared principles and living up to them. At the AICSA we believe the convergence of AI and cyber security should be guided by trust, transparency and accountability, and the charter gives us a clear framework to support. We are proud to add our name to it.” – Lisa Ventura MBE FCIIS, Chief Executive and Founder of the AI and Cyber Security Association.
What Is the CREST AI Charter?
The CREST AI Charter and its accompanying Nine AI Principles set out a shared approach to responsible AI use within cyber security. The aim is to support trust, transparency, accountability and assurance as AI is adopted across cyber security services, and to bring the global industry together around a common standard of good practice.

What Is Coming Next
CREST has shared that it is developing a range of resources and initiatives over the coming months, including a central CREST AI Hub bringing together AI-related resources, news and updates, new research and thought leadership on AI-enabled cyber security services, further community and collaboration opportunities, and the development of assurance frameworks and standards for AI-enabled cyber security.
The AICSA looks forward to supporting this work and to continuing to champion responsible, trustworthy AI across the cyber security profession.
