AI Security Review

We review the security of LLM/RAG/agent systems: prompt injection, data leakage, tool permissions, logging, and deployment posture. You receive a prioritized report and a clear mitigation plan your team can ship.

Overview

What this service is

An AI security review focuses on risks unique to LLM apps: prompt injection, unsafe tool use, retrieval leakage, and untrusted output paths.

We threat-model your system end-to-end and test real failure modes against your data sources, tools, and policies.

Delivery includes an actionable report, recommended guardrails, and implementation guidance (or we can implement fixes with you).

Standard

AI delivery standard

Quality and safety practices we ship with AI builds so the system stays measurable, maintainable, and production-ready.

Logging + tracing

Conversation and tool traces with request IDs, error visibility, and debug-friendly runbooks.

Guardrails + safety

Tool allowlists, PII-safe patterns, refusal behavior, and escalation routes for edge cases.

Evals + regression tests

Golden queries, scorecards, and regression checks so quality improves over time instead of drifting.

Cost + latency controls

Caching, prompt discipline, retrieval tuning, and routing so your app stays fast and predictable at scale.

Documentation + handoff

Architecture notes, environment setup, and next-step roadmap so your team can iterate safely after launch.

Security-first integration

Secrets isolation, role-based access, audit-friendly actions, and minimal data retention by design.

Benefits

What you get

Identify prompt injection and data leakage risks

Reduce unsafe tool action surfaces

Improve audit readiness with logs and controls

Clarify privacy and retention posture

Prioritize fixes with clear severity ranking

Ship mitigations with minimal product disruption

Features

What we deliver

Threat model + attack surface mapping

We map data sources, tools, prompts, and user entry points to identify the highest-risk areas.

Prompt injection testing

Adversarial inputs to validate context separation, tool controls, and policy enforcement under real attacks.

RAG leakage checks

Test retrieval filtering, tenant isolation, and permission enforcement to prevent cross-user data exposure.

Tool permission review

Review allowlists, parameter validation, approvals, and RBAC to ensure actions are safe and minimal.

Logging and retention review

Validate what’s logged and stored, ensure PII handling is sane, and recommend safe retention policies.

Actionable remediation plan

Prioritized fixes with practical implementation steps and acceptance criteria.

Use Cases

Who this is for

Security review before enterprise rollout

Validate your AI system’s security posture before enabling broader access and higher-risk tools.

Agent tool access hardening

Reduce the risk of agents taking unsafe actions via strict allowlists and approval patterns.

Permissioned RAG hardening

Confirm retrieval filters and tenant isolation prevent private document leakage.

Incident response improvement

Add logging and monitoring so failures are visible and actionable during incidents.

Compliance-aligned logging and retention

Validate retention and logging behavior to reduce privacy exposure without losing debugging power.

Implementation Patterns

How we frame common AI workflows

Illustrative patterns only—not client case studies, endorsements, or production-result claims.

Regulated mobile data workflow pattern

Challenge: Sensitive data workflows need explicit access boundaries, traceability, and documented operating responsibilities.

Approach: Threat-model the workflow, map authorization rules, select encryption controls, and define auditable state transitions.

Validation: Test access boundaries and recovery paths, record residual risk, and obtain any required independent compliance assessment.

Large knowledge-base retrieval pattern

Challenge: Long, mixed-format source collections need traceable retrieval and safe behavior when evidence is weak.

Approach: Evaluate hybrid retrieval, reranking, citations, structured outputs, and defined fallback or human-review paths.

Validation: Use a representative offline evaluation set and report citation quality, latency, and cost under documented test conditions.

Operations automation pattern

Challenge: Approval and system-sync workflows need deterministic controls around exceptions, retries, and ownership.

Approach: Model the workflow, add validation and approval gates, and use AI only for bounded classification or extraction tasks.

Validation: Baseline manual steps, test exception paths and audit logs, then compare pilot measurements before considering wider rollout.
