How to meet it
OWASP AISVS v1.01
Monitoring, Logging & Anomaly Detection · Training Data & Model Lifecycle Audit
Keep immutable records of model changes
Verify that all model changes generate immutable audit records.
OWASP AISVS v1.01, requirement 12.5.3
In plain English
Every change to a model, its configuration or prompts creates an audit record that cannot be altered.
What good looks like
- All model changes produce records.
- Records are stored in append-only or write-once storage.
- Records link to approvals.
How teams usually do it
- Deployment pipeline events written to immutable storage.
Evidence an auditor would accept
- Records for recent changes and the storage settings.
Common mistakes
- Changes made directly in a console, outside the pipeline, which leave no record.
