AI Security Review Services

We perform AI security reviews for assistants and agents: injection and leakage testing, tool permission audits, and actionable remediation so production rollout is safer.

TimelineTypical: 1–3 weeks (scope-dependent)

Security-first AI integrations • Evals + logging + guardrails included

Overview

What this service is

We review your AI system like an attacker would: prompts, retrieval, tool surface area, auth boundaries, secrets handling, and UX flows that can be exploited.

Findings are delivered as a prioritized list with fixes, not vague risk statements—so engineering teams can remediate quickly.

We can also add regression tests and monitoring so the same classes of issues don’t reappear after new features ship.

Benefits

What you get

Lower risk of prompt injection incidents

Identify and mitigate exploit paths before they reach users.

Reduced data exposure

Permission boundaries and retrieval filters are validated against leakage scenarios.

Safer tool-enabled automation

Tool schemas, allowlists, and approval steps are audited for misuse risks.

Actionable remediation

A fix plan helps you prioritize changes that materially reduce risk.

Better governance posture

Audit logs and monitoring recommendations support ongoing security and compliance needs.

Features

What we deliver

Threat model and attack surface map

Identify risk points across prompts, retrieval, tools, and user flows.

Prompt injection testing

Adversarial inputs to test instruction bypass, data exfiltration, and tool misuse.

Data access and leakage review

Validate permissions, filters, and sensitive data handling in retrieval and tool calls.

Tool permission audit

Review schemas, allowlists, and approval steps for actions that change systems or data.

Logging and monitoring recommendations

Add signals and alerts for risky patterns and unexpected behaviour in production.

Remediation plan

Prioritized fixes with implementation notes for engineering teams.

Process

How we work

1
1–3 days

Architecture review

We map your current workflows, tools, and access model to define the review scope.

2
3–7 days

Security testing

We run injection and leakage tests across prompts, retrieval, and tool calls.

3
2–4 days

Findings + fix plan

We deliver issues, severity, and recommended remediations with implementation guidance.

4
1–3 weeks

Optional hardening

We can implement guardrails, monitoring, and regression tests as part of delivery.

Use Cases

Who this is for

Pre-launch AI security assessment

Run a focused review before opening access to customers or internal teams.

Tool-enabled agents

Audit action boundaries and reduce the risk of unintended or malicious operations.

Internal knowledge assistants

Validate role-based access and prevent leakage across teams or departments.

Post-incident hardening

Identify root causes and implement controls that prevent repeats after an issue occurs.

Vendor and provider review

Assess where third-party services introduce risk and how to isolate them safely.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

This is an engineering security review focused on AI-specific risks. Independent third-party audits can be added if your compliance program requires them.

Yes. We test with representative tool schemas and permission boundaries so findings reflect real production behaviour.

We provide a clear remediation plan. If you want, we can also implement the fixes and add regression tests.

Yes. We can implement secrets isolation, allowlists, throttling, and monitoring aligned to your deployment model.

Many reviews can complete in 1–2 weeks depending on tool surface area and complexity.

Regional

Delivery considerations for your region

Compliance & Data (US)

For US teams, we build with auditability in mind: clear access boundaries, least-privilege roles, and reviewable operational controls.

We can align delivery with SOC 2 / ISO-friendly practices (without claiming certification): evidence-ready logs, secure-by-default config, and clear ownership.

  • SOC 2 / ISO-friendly implementation patterns (no certification claims)
  • Least-privilege access and permission boundaries
  • Security review checklists for auth, payments, and data flows
  • PII-safe logging + incident response playbooks (on request)
  • Retention and deletion flows where required
  • NDA + vendor onboarding docs on request

Timezone & Collaboration (Americas)

We support teams across the Americas with meeting windows that work for EST/CST/MST/PST.

We keep delivery predictable with weekly milestones, concise async updates, and written decisions to reduce calendar load.

  • Americas overlap with EST/PST-friendly windows
  • Async-first updates with written decisions
  • Weekly milestone demos + change control
  • Fast turnaround on blockers and clarifications
  • Clear owner per workstream and escalation path

Engagement & Procurement (US)

US-friendly engagement structure: clear SOWs, milestone billing, and invoice cadence that fits typical procurement workflows.

If you need vendor onboarding artefacts, we can provide security posture summaries and delivery process documentation.

  • USD invoicing and milestone-based payment schedules
  • SOW + scope lock options for fixed-scope work
  • Time-and-materials for evolving requirements
  • Procurement-ready documentation on request
  • Optional paid discovery to de-risk delivery

Security & Quality (US)

We ship with a security-first checklist and performance budgets—so releases stay stable under real traffic.

Expect clean PRs, reviewable changes, and production-ready testing from day one.

  • Threat-aware checks for auth, roles, and sensitive data flows
  • CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + critical path smoke tests
  • Performance budgets (Core Web Vitals-minded) and bundle checks
  • Structured logging + error tracking hooks (Sentry-ready)
  • Rollback-safe releases and clear release notes
