Abacus Recognized as Signatory of the CREST AI Charter, Joining Global AI Initiative
New Commitment Reinforces Abacus’ Leadership in Responsible AI Adoption, Governance, and Cybersecurity Innovation
NEW YORK, August 24, 2026 — Abacus, a global managed IT and cybersecurity service provider for highly regulated industries, announced it has become a signatory of the CREST AI Charter, a global initiative that promotes the responsible, transparent, and accountable use of artificial intelligence across the cybersecurity profession. The charter is founded on nine principles designed to help organizations navigate the opportunities and risks of AI while maintaining trust, governance, and professional oversight.
As a signatory, Abacus is a founding member of an international community of cybersecurity organizations committed to supporting CREST’s AI Principles, helping shape the future of trusted AI-enabled cybersecurity services. The commitment is a natural extension of its position as an AI orchestrator, helping clients accelerate AI adoption while maintaining compliance, security, and operational control through a governance-first approach.
“AI is rapidly transforming every aspect of technology and cybersecurity, but organizations in the highly regulated industries that we serve must be able to trust how these capabilities are developed, deployed, operated and governed,” said Abacus CEO, Anthony J. D’Ambrosi. “The Abacus AI Acceleration (A3) strategy is built on the belief that responsible AI requires more than just innovation; it demands accountability, transparency, and human oversight. We are AI orchestrators, and becoming a signatory of the CREST AI Charter reinforces our commitment to helping our clients embrace AI confidently and securely while maintaining the highest standards of governance, compliance, and cyber resilience.”
The announcement builds upon Abacus’ broader investment in AI-enabled service delivery and capabilities through its A3 initiative. The company has integrated AI across key operational, cybersecurity, and advisory functions while developing frameworks that help clients assess and govern AI environments responsibly. These efforts are underpinned by Abacus’ deep compliance expertise and longstanding focus on the needs of financial services and healthcare organizations.
As AI adoption accelerates, the cybersecurity industry faces increasing scrutiny from regulators, clients, and stakeholders regarding how it is used. The CREST AI Charter is part of the organization’s broader initiative to establish standards, assurance frameworks, and industry collaboration around the responsible use of AI in cybersecurity. As a signatory, Abacus contributes to an industry-wide effort to build trust and confidence in AI-enabled security services.
