AI agent security assessment

Six things we check. Every one written down.

Each card shows where it is delivered. The $10,000 review is the NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001 gap review. Hands-on testing runs on the Secure AI retainer, scoped on a call.

Secure AI retainer

Prompt injection

Can text in an email, ticket or web page make your agent act?

Secure AI retainer

Agent permissions

What each agent can read, send, change or delete, and under whose credentials.

Secure AI retainer

Data leakage

Where customer and company data flows into AI tools, and where it should not.

Shadow AI

Extensions, bundled assistants and personal accounts nobody approved.

Governance review

Guardrails

What an agent may do alone, what needs a human, and what it never touches.

Governance review

Audit trail

Whether you can reconstruct what an agent did, on what basis, and when.

FAQ

Before you book.

How much does an AI security assessment cost?

Published prices start at $10,000 for an AI security and governance review against NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001. A full one-framework assessment and roadmap for a 50 to 300 person organization is $15,000 to $40,000. A short scoping call sets a fixed price before work begins.

Is this a NIST AI RMF gap assessment?

It can be. NIST AI RMF is one of three frameworks we assess against, with ISO/IEC 42001 and the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications. Each gap is scored and ranked by risk.

Do you test AI agents for prompt injection?

Yes, as part of a Secure AI retainer scoped against your stack on the call. It is not part of the $10,000 review. Agents are tested against the content they actually process, such as email, tickets and web pages, and each finding records what the agent could reach. Scope, window and stop conditions are agreed in writing first.

Are you an auditor or certification body?

No. TheZaraAI is an advisory practice. ISO/IEC 42001 certification is issued by an accredited registrar. We get you ready and write down the evidence.

Who does the work?

Jax Scott, founder of TheZaraAI: a woman and U.S. Army veteran with more than 20 years in military and enterprise security, and former Deputy CISO and VP of Cybersecurity at Pearson. Nothing is subcontracted.
