The Guide requires maintenance of audit trails to support review, challenge, and independent audits of systems used operationally.
Comprehensive, tamper-evident records capturing key events across an AI system's lifecycle — including dataset versions, training runs, model updates, testing results, deployment decisions, and decision outputs — to enable audits, accountability, and regulatory compliance investigations.
