Methodology · The Technical View

AI security is a stack. We architect it from the ground up.

Most teams bolt security on after deployment. We build it into every layer — from data provenance at the foundation to governance and oversight at the top — mapped to all four tiers of the CSA AI Controls Matrix.

The Architect’s Blueprint

A continuous stack protecting the entire lifecycle.

AI security isn’t a random checklist. It’s a layered stack — and every AssuredPosture engagement maps to all four tiers.

Exploded four-tier AI security stack: foundation, core assets, access and interface, and oversight.
Tier 4 — Oversight

Governance, Threat & Supply Chain

Governance (GRC), threat management (TVM), supply-chain risk (STA), and audit & accountability (A&A).

Tier 3 — Access & Interface

Application & Identity

Application security (AIS), identity & access management (IAM), and interoperability (IPY).

Tier 2 — Core Assets

Model, Data & Cryptography

Model security (MDS), data security & privacy (DSP), and cryptography, encryption & key management (CEK).

Tier 1 — Foundation

Infrastructure & Resilience

Infrastructure (I&S), universal endpoints (UEM), datacenter (DCS), and business continuity (BCR).

Critical Security Implementations

Controls that hold up in production.

Automated Jailbreak & Prompt Testing

We run “instruction override” scenarios against your AI to ensure sensitive data stays isolated — before an attacker tries the same thing.

Real-Time SOC Alerting

Monitor for high-risk prompt patterns like “ignore all previous instructions,” with alerting wired into your security operations.

Data Provenance & Integrity

Continuously validate and trace data sources to prevent data poisoning and unauthorized changes to what your models learn from.

The Control Plane

When your AI starts to act, the checkpoint moves.

As you go from simple chatbots to AI that executes real work across your systems, the attack surface fundamentally shifts. We stand up a control-plane checkpoint between your AI and your customer records, payments, and core systems — so automation never outruns your guardrails.

Policy Check

Every action is screened against your security policy before it runs.

Auth Verify

Least-privilege access enforced on what your AI can reach and change.

Threat Management

Continuous identification and treatment of high-risk AI behavior and drift.

Your role in the AI supply chain. Security ownership in AI is shared across every layer — cloud provider, model provider, application provider, and you. We help you identify exactly where your responsibility starts and build the controls to meet it.
