AI assistants and automations
Secure AI and automation for your business
Automate useful work while keeping data, access and actions under control. We build AI agents and workflows with appropriate safeguards, or assess existing AI tools and recommend improvements before you expand their use.
Who this service is for
Introduce AI securely or assess what you already use
- You want to automate repetitive work with an AI agent connected to your business systems.
- You need to protect sensitive information when AI reads documents, processes requests or changes records.
- Your team needs independent security testing before launching or expanding an AI application.
- You already use AI tools and want to assess permissions, data exposure and the need for human oversight.
What the work achieves
Automated workflows and controlled AI risks
-
AI that supports your business processes
For a build engagement, we develop the agreed workflow around your team’s tasks and systems. For an assessment, we identify improvements to your existing AI use.
-
Data and actions under appropriate control
Access limits and human approvals reduce the risk of data exposure or unauthorised actions. Safeguards reflect the sensitivity and impact of the task.
-
Tested risks and practical next steps
Security testing and review identify weaknesses and recommended fixes. Your team understands the remaining risks, release conditions and checks needed during use.
What we cover
Build new AI or check what you have
Map the task and data
We identify what the assistant needs to read, change and communicate, what could go wrong and who is responsible.
Build agents and automated tasks
We build AI assistants that take actions in your systems, and automations for repetitive tasks. Each gets only the access we agree.
Add approvals and action logs
We put human review into sensitive steps and record inputs, decisions, actions, failures and changes.
AI security testing
We test whether hidden instructions in an email or document (prompt injection) can make the AI share protected information or take actions it shouldn’t. We also test how it recovers from failures.
Review AI already in use
We review the AI tools your team uses, such as Microsoft 365 Copilot, and the automations it built, checking permissions, data use and approvals.
Set rules for ongoing use
We agree checks before release, monitoring, steps for handling problems and reviews when the AI or its tasks change.
How it works
How we build and assess AI applications
-
01
Agree the use case and risks
We discuss the process you want to improve or the AI you already use, then assess data, system connections, permissions and potential business impact.
-
02
Build or improve the agreed safeguards
For implementation work, we build the workflow or help improve existing access limits, human approvals and logging. Assessment-only work produces recommendations for your team.
-
03
Challenge the AI before release
We test realistic misuse and failure cases, record the results and agree what to fix before use.
- 04
Agree handover and ongoing support
We explain the results, operating limits and review needs. Any monitoring or further reviews after release are agreed as part of the support scope.
What we need from your team
- A person who owns the task the AI will do.
- Test access to the systems and data the AI will use.
- Your technical team or implementation partner, if they built the automation being reviewed.
- Someone who can decide which actions need a person’s approval.
Secure AI & Automation
Agree the build or review price
Your proposal prices the tasks, the system connections, how sensitive the data is and how much building or testing the work needs.
We agree the work and price with you in writing before we start.
