NCC Group has become a founding signatory of the CREST AI Charter, joining a global movement to set the standard for responsible AI in cyber security.
Launched in June 2026, the Charter sets out a shared framework to support trust, transparency, accountability and assurance in AI-enabled cyber security.
As a signatory, NCC Group supports CREST’s nine AI Principles, guiding how AI is governed, deployed and overseen including human oversight, data protection and accountability.
This comes as AI adoption continues to accelerate across cyber security, from threat detection and analysis to testing and reporting, increasing demand from clients and regulators for clearer standards.
A commitment to trusted, human-led AI
Signing the Charter reflects NCC Group’s focus on enabling the safe, secure and responsible adoption of AI and combining human expertise with AI-powered capability to deliver trusted outcomes for clients.
As a founding signatory, NCC Group joins a global community of cyber security companies shaping how AI is applied in cyber security, ensuring innovation is supported by strong governance and professional standards.
Driving industry standards for AI-enabled cyber security
Matt Hull, VP Cyber Intelligence & Response, NCC Group: “AI is already transforming how cyber security services are delivered. What matters now is how it is governed, validated and applied responsibly. As organisations increasingly rely on AI-driven insight, maintaining trust in how these technologies are applied is critical. By signing the CREST AI Charter, we are reinforcing our commitment to combining deep human expertise with AI-driven capability in a way our clients can trust.”
Commenting from CREST International, Chief Product Officer Sebastian Madden added: "We welcome NCC Group as a founding signatory and are encouraged to see leading organisations helping shape the future of trusted AI-enabled cybersecurity. Whilst AI has the potential to transform cybersecurity, innovation alone is not enough - and as adoption accelerates, the industry must ensure that trust keeps pace.
The CREST AI Charter and Principles were developed to help provide that foundation, bringing together cybersecurity providers around common expectations for transparency, accountability and assurance. NCC Group's support demonstrates the growing recognition that trusted AI will require industry-backed collaboration."
