Crypto.com has secured the ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certification, making it the first digital asset platform to meet the international standard for an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS). The certification, issued by the International Organisation for Standardisation, specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an AIMS within organizations.
Kris Marszalek, Co-Founder and CEO of Crypto.com, stated, “We are proud to continue to lead and be recognised for our commitment to safety and security standards. This certification is the latest step in our commitment to being a trusted and secure environment for our global user base, and an important step as we continue to leverage AI tools and technologies.” Jason Lau, the company's Chief Information Security Officer, emphasized that security and privacy remain a fundamental focus, and the certification underscores leadership in responsible AI practices.
The certification is designed to ensure organizations manage risks associated with AI, including ethical considerations, transparency, accountability, and societal impact. It adds to Crypto.com's existing compliance framework, which includes ISO/IEC 27001 for Information Security Management, ISO/IEC 27701 for Privacy Information Management, ISO 22301 for Business Continuity Management, PCI:DSS compliance, and SOC 2 Type 2 compliance. The company is also independently assessed at Tier 4, the highest level for both NIST Cybersecurity and Privacy Frameworks.
This milestone follows a series of AI-focused initiatives by Crypto.com. In November, the exchange integrated with CoincidenceAI, an AI-powered trading platform also connected to Bybit and KuCoin. In December, it partnered with AI-powered crypto trading assistant Doblox. Furthermore, CEO Kris Marszalek finalized a $70 million purchase of the ai.com domain in April 2025, conducted entirely in crypto, to launch a consumer platform featuring autonomous AI agents aimed at being the “front door to AGI” through a decentralized network.
The news highlights the broader trend of crypto firms increasingly relying on AI for fraud detection, security monitoring, risk modeling, and operational automation. In a related development, South Korea’s Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) is upgrading its AI-powered VISTA platform to strengthen real-time detection of crypto market manipulation. Analysts note the AI sector reached nearly $1.5 trillion in worldwide spending in 2025, with major tech giants planning massive investments in AI infrastructure this year.
