NIST AI RMF MAP 1
For each AI system you know its purpose, users, setting, limits and the laws that apply.
What NIST says
Context is established and understood.
Category statement quoted from NIST AI 100-1 (AI RMF 1.0). Function: MAP, context is recognized and risks related to context are identified.
Evidence that shows you're doing it
- AI system description: purpose, users, deployment setting
- Documented assumptions and known limitations
Rate yourself
- Not done
- Ad hoc
- Defined
- Operating
- Measured and improving
The AI Governance Toolkit (Professional, $599) has the NIST AI RMF mapping workbook: maturity scoring, evidence, owners and next steps for every category, plus the ISO/IEC 42001 crosswalk.
Other MAP categories
- MAP 2: Each AI system is classified: what task it performs, how it works, and how much risk it carries.
- MAP 3: You know what the AI is meant to achieve, what it costs, and how it compares with alternatives, including not using AI.
- MAP 4: Risks are mapped for every part of the system, including third-party models and data.
- MAP 5: You have assessed who could be affected by the AI and how, likely and unlikely.
