Building trust in enterprise AI: Together AI earns ISO 27001:2022 certification

Together AI, one of the bigger names in the crowded AI infrastructure business, has picked up ISO 27001:2022 certification from A-LIGN Compliance and Security, an ANAB-accredited auditor. That's a mouthful, but the short version is this: an outside party spent months poking at how the company handles risk, protects data, and runs its security operations, and came away satisfied enough to put a stamp on it.

The certification covers Together AI's global platform, meaning the systems and controls guarding customer data and platform operations, plus the third-party data centers it leases for hosting and colocation. That last bit matters more than it sounds. A lot of AI infrastructure providers run on borrowed hardware in someone else's facility, and customers increasingly want proof that the security promises extend beyond the corporate office and into whatever warehouse is actually running the GPUs.

ISO 27001:2022 isn't flashy, but it's the standard procurement and risk teams actually recognize. It forces a company to systematically identify security risks, put technical and organizational controls in place, and keep reviewing whether those controls still work. For a company selling compute and model access to enterprises, that translates into concrete assurances around access control, incident response, and secure development practices — the stuff that shows up in a vendor security questionnaire before anyone signs a contract.

Together AI is framing this as one layer of a broader defense-in-depth approach, sitting alongside its existing SOC 2 alignment. Which is the right way to think about it: certification alone doesn't stop a breach, it just proves someone checked the locks. As more regulated industries — finance, healthcare, government contractors — start shipping real workloads to third-party AI platforms, this kind of paperwork stops being a nice-to-have and starts being the price of entry.
