The document states that Meta's Frontier AI Framework is scoped to cybersecurity threats and chemical and biological weapons risks, and that these are designated as the primary areas for risk assessment in frontier AI model development.

This provision defines the operational boundaries of Meta's disclosed risk evaluation framework, establishing that the framework does not purport to address the full range of AI risk categories identified in regulatory frameworks such as the EU AI Act, which encompasses broader harm categories including fundamental rights, discrimination, and societal impact.
The document establishes that Meta's stated risk assessment scope for frontier AI models is limited to cybersecurity and chemical and biological weapons domains; other categories of AI-related risk are not addressed within this framework.

"Our Frontier AI Framework focuses on the most critical risks in the areas of cybersecurity threats and risks from chemical and biological weapons. By prioritizing these areas, we can work to protect national security while promoting innovation.Excerpt from Meta's Frontier AI Framework
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The EU AI Act establishes a broad risk classification system for AI systems that encompasses harms beyond the cybersecurity and weapons domains addressed in this framework, including risks to fundamental rights, health, safety, and democratic processes. The FTC maintains authority over unfair or deceptive practices related to AI in the United States. The scope limitation in this framework may be relevant to organizations assessing whether Meta's disclosed governance approach aligns with broader regulatory risk taxonomies. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The framework's explicit limitation to two risk domains, while other AI governance frameworks address broader harm categories, may create disclosure or adequacy gaps for organizations required to demonstrate comprehensive AI risk management under applicable law or internal policy. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and EEA jurisdictions present heightened exposure, as the EU AI Act's risk classification system addresses a wider range of potential harms than those covered by this framework. Organizations deploying Meta frontier AI systems in the EU should evaluate whether this scoped framework satisfies their own conformity obligations. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement and vendor assessment teams should note that this document does not constitute a binding contractual commitment and does not establish audit rights, indemnification, or liability allocation relative to risks outside the stated scope. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should assess whether their internal AI governance policies require documentation of a broader risk scope than Meta's framework discloses, and whether supplementary risk assessments are required for deployment of Meta frontier AI systems in regulated contexts.
