AI Security Officer

AI Compliance Officer is an outsourced leadership service that provides organisations with dedicated AI compliance expertise on a retained basis. The role manages the ongoing regulatory obligations arising from the EU AI Act, including risk register maintenance, conformity documentation updates, incident reporting coordination, and liaison with national competent authorities. It is designed for organisations that operate AI systems requiring continuous compliance oversight but do not have the volume or budget to justify a full-time internal AI compliance function.

What are the results of this service?

The outsourced AI Compliance Officer maintains a current and complete AI system register covering all deployed systems, their risk classifications, and applicable obligations. The role ensures that conformity documentation — technical files, quality management system records, and post-market monitoring reports — remains up to date as systems are modified, retrained, or decommissioned. Risk registers are reviewed on a defined cadence, with emerging risks from model updates, data changes, or regulatory guidance escalated to appropriate stakeholders.

Audit coordination is a core deliverable. The AI Compliance Officer prepares the organisation for internal and external audits by maintaining evidence repositories, coordinating responses to regulatory inquiries, and managing corrective action tracking. The role also monitors regulatory developments — new implementing acts, guidance from the EU AI Office, national transposition measures — and translates them into updated internal policies and procedures. Organisations receive periodic compliance status reports with metrics covering obligation fulfilment, open findings, and remediation progress.

How does this service help you?

Executives and board members receive assurance that AI compliance obligations are actively managed by a qualified professional, reducing personal liability exposure under the AI Act's accountability provisions. CISOs and IT managers benefit from a dedicated counterpart who handles AI-specific regulatory requirements, freeing them to focus on broader security and operational priorities. Legal and compliance teams gain a specialist resource that bridges the gap between technical AI system details and regulatory language, improving the quality and speed of regulatory responses. The service scales with the organisation's AI portfolio — as new systems are deployed or existing ones modified, the compliance oversight adjusts without recruitment delays. Up Secure provides this service by drawing on professionals with combined regulatory and technical backgrounds who understand both the legal framework and the engineering realities of AI system management.
