Compliance and AI

What the GDPR, the AI Act, NIS2, ISO 27001, and sector rules mean once your team uses AI.

Quick answer

Compliance frameworks rarely mention AI by name, but they all apply the moment staff paste personal or confidential data into an AI tool. The GDPR governs personal data, the AI Act governs the system, NIS2 raises governance and incident duties, and ISO 27001, the BIO, and NEN 7510 ask for organisational measures and awareness. The shared practical answer is data minimisation at the point of typing.

Most rules that organisations live by were written before everyday generative AI. They still apply. A national ID in a prompt is personal data under the GDPR. A care file in a chatbot is special-category data under NEN 7510. An incident with a public AI tool can become a reporting duty under NIS2.

These guides translate each framework into the same practical question: which data may leave your organisation, and how do you keep the rest out of an AI tool. They cover the GDPR, the EU AI Act, NIS2, ISO 27001, and the BIO and NEN 7510 for government and healthcare.

The common thread across all of them is data minimisation and awareness at the moment data is shared. A signal in the text field, so the person typing can remove, replace, or mask sensitive data before they send, supports the organisational measures these frameworks ask for, without reading the content of private chats.

FAQ

Common questions

Do these frameworks mention AI directly?

Mostly not. The GDPR, NIS2, ISO 27001, the BIO, and NEN 7510 predate everyday generative AI, but they apply as soon as personal or confidential data enters an AI tool. The EU AI Act is the one framework written specifically for AI systems.

What is the practical measure they all share?

Data minimisation and awareness at the point of use. Keep personal and confidential data out of prompts, document what you do, and make the safe path the easy path so people follow it under time pressure.

Is BeeSensible itself certified?

The infrastructure BeeSensible runs on is ISO 27001 certified. BeeSensible itself is not certified. BeeSensible supports your measures by making sensitive data visible before it is sent, but it does not replace your own compliance work.
