Step 1
Discovery and scope: agents, use cases, systems and customer questions.
AI Agent Security Readiness
Are your AI agents ready for enterprise environments?
We review identities, permissions, integrations, data access and controls for your AI agents to prioritize risks and prepare evidence for enterprise customers.
The challenge
An agent can act on data and systems, not just answer questions.
For SaaS startups and technology teams, connecting agents to email, repositories, APIs or customer data raises new security questions. When an enterprise questionnaire arrives, decisions and evidence must be explainable.
Access to confidential information and tools with broad permissions.
Automated actions without defined approval or boundaries.
API and MCP integrations without a clear inventory or review.
Limited traceability for investigating actions or answering customers.
The assessment
An assessment focused on the agents actually in use.
We start with real architecture and use cases. We review controls and evidence, identify gaps and agree priorities based on risk. Technical validation is added when the scope calls for it; it is not a PenTest included by default.
Inventory of agents, owners, data and connections.
Permissions, secrets, data access and action boundaries.
Human oversight, logs and incident response.
Evidence for security reviews and a remediation roadmap.
Six areas to understand actual exposure
We review only the agents, systems and data agreed in scope.
01
Inventory and architecture
Which agents exist, who owns each one and what systems they connect to.
02
Identity and access
Which identities they use, how credentials are managed and whether access is proportionate.
03
Data protection
What information they receive, store or share and what boundaries protect sensitive data.
04
Tools, APIs and MCP
Which tools they can invoke, under which authorization and how integrations are reviewed.
05
Behavior and oversight
Which actions they can take, when a person must approve and how decisions are constrained.
06
Logs and response
What activity is recorded, how events are investigated and who responds to an incident.
How we work
Step 2
Review of architecture, identities, permissions, integrations and existing controls.
Step 3
Assessment of risks and the evidence supporting each control.
Step 4
Optional technical validation, agreed for the relevant assets and scope.
Step 5
Report, priorities and roadmap with proposed owners.
What your team receives
The set and depth of deliverables are defined in the proposal according to the contracted scope.
- AI Agent Exposure Profile: inventory and relevant connections.
- Security Readiness Report: posture and reviewed evidence.
- Risk Register: risks prioritized in context.
- Control Gap Matrix: existing controls and gaps.
- Remediation Roadmap: actions, sequence and proposed owners.
- Executive Summary: decisions for leadership.
Be better prepared for an enterprise customer's security review
An assessment can help you answer questionnaires, document controls and prepare evidence before due diligence. It also helps prioritize gaps that matter to your product. Approval remains the customer's or auditor's decision.
- Answer enterprise questionnaires with verifiable information.
- Prepare evidence before an external review.
- Find permissions and connections that need attention.
- Prioritize remediation by exposure and business impact.
References that inform the work
We select references based on the case. Talsoft does not certify ISO/IEC 42001 or AIUC-1, or promise automatic compliance.
We also use identity, access and least-privilege principles appropriate to the architecture.
A focused assessment that can also support long-term improvement
You can hire this assessment on its own. When controls need to be implemented and operated, it can connect to the Maturity Program without starting over.
01
Initial GAP
Understand business risks and priorities.
02
AI Agent Security Readiness
Assess agents and prepare evidence.
03
Implementation
Apply controls and address prioritized gaps.
04
Fractional CISO
Review changes, decisions and evidence over time.
No guarantee of external approval. Technical validation and specific deliverables depend on the agreed scope.
Frequently asked questions
What is AI Agent Security Readiness?
It is an assessment of AI agent architecture, access, data, behavior, logs and evidence to identify risks and define concrete improvements.
Is it the same as a PenTest?
No. The assessment reviews posture and controls. Technical testing is agreed separately when relevant to the scope.
Do I need ISO/IEC 42001?
No. It may serve as a methodological reference, but it is not required to start and we do not offer certification.
Does it help us prepare for SOC 2?
It can help organize agent controls and evidence within a broader readiness effort. It does not replace a SOC 2 assessment or guarantee its outcome.
Does Talsoft certify AIUC-1?
No. AIUC-1 may be used as a market reference, but Talsoft does not issue that certification.
What if we use MCP?
We review in-scope MCP servers and tools, their permissions, accessible data and available logs.
Do you need access to our systems?
We first agree on scope and documentation. Any access or technical testing is expressly agreed with appropriate permissions.
How long does the assessment take?
It depends on the number of agents, integrations, available evidence and depth of validation. We estimate it after defining the scope.
Can we hire only the technical assessment?
Yes, a focused technical review can be scoped when the objectives and access are clear. It can also connect to a GAP or continuous improvement.
Let's define the scope for your AI agents
In an initial conversation we identify which agents, integrations and customer questions are worth reviewing. Booking a call does not commit you to the service.
