ANAB accredits it as an ISO/IEC 17025 testing lab and to certify against ISO/IEC 42001, the AI management standard. ## Palindrome Technologies scores Scored 1 to 5 on six criteria. There is no overall score. ### Help when things go wrong: 1/5 No published record of certificate suspension or withdrawal action found; the ISO 42001 accreditation is brand new (Q2 2026 press release), so no track record exists either way. ### Qualifications of the people who do the work: 3/5 ANAB lists it Active/Accredited for ISO 17025 and ISO 42001, but a directory search returned 0 results for ISO 27001 despite the firm marketing broader GRC and infosec consulting, scope is real but narrower than its marketing implies. ### What it publishes about fees: 1/5 No pricing, rate card, or worked fee examples were found anywhere on its certification or consulting service pages. ### Knowledge of your sector: 3/5 Genuine, ANAB-verified named accreditation to certify ISO/IEC 42001 AI management systems, but only achieved Q2 2026 with no multi-year record of certificates actually issued. ### Independence from what it sells: 4/5 Publishes a written impartiality policy citing ISO/IEC 17021-1, states it does not provide management-system consulting, and cites an external committee reviewing its impartiality controls. ### Who carries the risk if the advice is wrong: 1/5 No PI insurance or liability-terms disclosure was found; the only corporate-structure fact on record is its NJ foreign for-profit registration. ## Sources for Palindrome Technologies Every line carries the page it was read on and the date it was checked. - ANAB accredits Palindrome Technologies as an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 testing laboratory (Information Technology category), at its Princeton, NJ address. - Source: https://search.anab.org/ - Checked: 2026-09-20 - ANAB accredits Palindrome Technologies as a management-systems certification body (per ISO/IEC 17021-1) for ISO/IEC 42001 (AI Management Systems). - Source: https://anabdirectory.remoteauditor.com/Certificate/Browse - Checked: 2026-09-20 - Palindrome Technologies does not appear in ANAB's management-systems Certification Body Directory as accredited for ISO/IEC 27001. - Source: https://anabdirectory.remoteauditor.com/Certificate/Browse - Checked: 2026-09-20 - Palindrome Technologies, Inc. is registered in New Jersey as a foreign (out-of-state) for-profit corporation. - Source: https://www.njportal.com/DOR/BusinessNameSearch/Search/EntityName - Checked: 2026-09-20 - Palindrome Technologies publishes a written impartiality policy stating it does not provide management-system consulting, citing ISO/IEC 17021-1. - Source: https://palindrometech.com/certification-services - Checked: 2026-09-20 - Palindrome Technologies states it achieved its ISO/IEC 42001 AIMS accreditation in Q2 2026, announced via press release. - Source: https://palindrometech.com/news-events/press-release-palindrome-technologies-achieves-milestone-iso/iec-42001-aims-accreditation-pioneering-the-global-standard-for-ai-trustworthiness-and-governance - Checked: 2026-09-20 ## What this provider publishes Not published means we did not find it on the firm's own pages. - Price: Not published - Indemnity cover: Not published - Credentials: Published - Independent accreditation: Published - Client results: Not published - How it uses AI: Published ## Strengths - Holds two genuine, independently-verifiable ANAB accreditations: ISO/IEC 17025:2017 testing laboratory (cert L2331) and ISO/IEC 42001 AI-management-systems certification body (cert PaliTech-MS-4287). - Publishes an ISO/IEC 17021-1-compliant impartiality policy that separates certification activity from its own consulting services, overseen by a stated independent external committee. - Two-decade operating history (since 2005) in cybersecurity/product-security testing across telecom, medical-device, financial-services and industrial sectors gives broad technical depth. - Among the earlier US bodies to gain ANAB accreditation specifically to certify organizations against ISO/IEC 42001 (achieved Q2 2026). ## Things to check Each one carries the factual basis it rests on. - Not accredited by ANAB as a management-systems certification body for ISO/IEC 27001, despite the firm marketing broader governance-risk-and-compliance and information-security consulting services. - Basis: ANAB CB Directory search for "Palindrome" under ISO/IEC 27001 returned 0 results (anabdirectory.remoteauditor.com/Certificate/Browse, checked 20 Sep 2026), versus 1 active "Accredited" result under ISO/IEC 42001. - No published pricing, fee schedule, or rate structure was found for its certification or consulting services. - Basis: The certification-services, governance-risk-and-compliance and about pages on palindrometech.com (checked 20 Sep 2026) contain no fee information. - Its ISO/IEC 42001 AI-management-systems accreditation is very recently granted, so there is no multi-year track record of certificates issued under that scope to review. - Basis: The firm's own press release states the accreditation was achieved in Q2 2026 and announced 4 Aug 2026 (palindrometech.com news release). ## Where this firm appears - [Can the firm that prepares you also certify you?](https://theassurancedesk.com/best/certification-seeking) - [Your sector adds its own rules to UK data protection law](https://theassurancedesk.com/best/sector-regulated) - [Compare providers](https://theassurancedesk.com/compare) --- **Scope.** The Assurance Desk covers data protection, AI governance and cyber security in the United Kingdom and the United States.
