Why Tech SMEs are Exposed to AI System Failures

Icon
New Threat Vectors

Prompt injection, data poisoning, and model drift are not covered by your standard IT risk register. You need AI-specific defenses to prevent catastrophic failures.

Icon
Investor & Board Anxiety

Investors and insurers are waking up to AI liability. If your model hallucinates and gives a client bad advice, or leaks proprietary data, your business holds the liability.

Icon
Enterprise Security Block

Enterprise CTOs will not integrate your AI tool if it risks leaking their data. If you cannot prove your AI architecture is secure and risks are mitigated, you lose the contract.

THE SOLUTION
The four-step plan to a secure, compliant AI Risk Assessment
1. Threat Identification
Pinpointing AI-specific vulnerabilities.

I work with your engineering leadership to identify exactly where your AI pipeline is exposed to modern threats, from training data contamination to API vulnerabilities.

What is the difference between an AI Risk Assessment and an AI Impact Assessment?

This is a critical distinction in ISO 42001. A Risk Assessment looks inward: How could this AI harm our business? An Impact Assessment looks outward: How could this AI harm individuals, groups, or society?. Enterprise clients demand you do the latter before they let your software touch their customers.

We just use Azure OpenAI and AWS Bedrock. Do we still need a risk assessment?

Yes. Under the "Shared Responsibility Model" of cloud computing, Microsoft and Amazon are responsible for the security of the cloud, but you are responsible for security in the cloud. If your application sends sensitive client data to a foundation model without proper filtering, the liability falls entirely on you.

Will this slow down our engineers?

No. My approach is designed for agile Tech SMEs. I translate ISO standards into clear, actionable technical specifications. I handle the risk registers and documentation so your engineers can focus on building the product.
