ASCENDRA // AGENT ASSURANCE

Your AI is live.
Are its boundaries?

Customer-facing agents can answer questions, retrieve information and take action. We evaluate whether they stay within their intended permissions — and whether you have the evidence to prove it.

Focused, authorized testing. Synthetic data. Evidence-first reporting. No public third-party probing.

ASCENDRA / SECURITY VALIDATION

Assurance begins with evidence.

Illustrative controls to verify when an agent is connected to business systems.

AGENT ASSURANCE / INTERACTIVE DEMO

See the conversation unfold.

Watch a fictional agent respond to approval pressure, prompt injection and identity challenges. Every prompt, reply and observation appears here. No live agent or customer data is connected.

What we evaluate

A model can refuse a request.
Its connected systems still need controls.

Our initial exposure check probes defined behaviors. Deeper validation combines the agent’s responses with actual authorization, data access and tool-execution evidence — never just a chatbot transcript.

01 / INPUT

Instructions & context

Direct, retrieved-content and multi-turn prompt injection, role impersonation and memory contamination.

02 / DATA

Customer boundaries

Synthetic canary exposure, tenant separation, privacy, identity and role enforcement.

03 / ACTIONS

Tools & approvals

Approval gates, function permissions, outbound messaging and sandboxed business actions.

04 / RELIABILITY

Truth & source quality

Policy fabrication, knowledge provenance, unsupported promises and tool-failure handling.

05 / DETECTION

Monitoring & traceability

Correlation IDs, action receipts, audit evidence and a path to integrated runtime telemetry.

06 / FOLLOW-THROUGH

Roadmap & control plane

Severity-led findings with recommended identity, guardrail, DLP and runtime-control improvements.

From exposure to assurance

A practical entry point.
A more complete security picture.

Start with one authorized agent. Expand only where evidence and business impact warrant a deeper assessment.

STEP 01

Scope & permission

Agree environments, test accounts, synthetic data, API boundaries and rollback plans.

STEP 02

Challenge & observe

Run bounded test packs and capture responses with tool and identity evidence.

STEP 03

Validate findings

Separate observed failures from unverified or unavailable evidence. Prioritize business impacts.

STEP 04

Design next controls

Define runtime monitoring, IAM, DLP, approvals and the AI Control Plane roadmap.

ASCENDRA AGENT EXPOSURE CHECK

Know the risk before you scale the agent.

We’ll select one use case, agree safe testing boundaries, and provide an evidence-led readout with remediation priorities. Scoped assessments can lead into broader AI runtime visibility and control design.
