What’s included in the AI Security Review
Toro’s AI Security Review follows a clear, step-by-step methodology:
- Define the use case(s)
What is the purpose? How will people be using the AI tool in your organisation? What types of data will the AI process? What integration points will the AI tool interface with? - Identify the key stakeholders
Who owns it, who uses it, and who manages the controls that secure it? - Determine the assessment methodology
Tailored to your sector, use case, and risk appetite mapped to ISO/NIST standards. - Evaluate data & privacy risks
Where’s the data going? What’s being exposed? Is it compliant? - Consideration of controls
What technical and organisational controls are in place and are they enough? - Scoring and decisions
Clear, actionable risk score and strategic recommendations for risk mitigation.
The hidden risk of AI
Your organisation’s proprietary information is one of its most valuable assets. Whether you have source code, financial models, customer data, or R&D insights, this sensitive material should never be allowed to escape into the wild, especially through the very tools meant to help your business thrive.
The challenge is that many AI tools, including popular large language models (LLMs), learn from user input. Without proper controls and awareness, teams may unknowingly contribute confidential or regulated information to systems that pool data to retrain their models. This can lead to:
- Unintentional data sharing across users
- Loss of intellectual property control
- Regulatory breaches and legal exposure
- Damage to brand trust and reputation
Toro’s AI Security Review helps you identify these risks and implement controls to prevent them before they lead to irreversible harm.
AI Security Review FAQs
An AI Security Review is a structured assessment of how your organisation is using Artificial Intelligence tools and systems, with a focus on identifying risks related to data security, intellectual property, regulatory compliance, and governance. It helps ensure your AI use is responsible, transparent, and aligned with current laws such as the AI Act (2024).
AI tools can unintentionally expose sensitive data or intellectual property, especially when using third-party platforms that share or train on your inputs. An AI Security Review helps you understand these risks, implement mitigation strategies, and stay compliant with global regulations before issues arise.
Without proper controls, AI platforms may:
- Leak confidential data
- Expose your organisation to regulatory penalties
- Violate data protection laws
- Compromise intellectual property rights
- Introduce biased or unexplainable decision-making processes
The AI Act, which came into force on 1st August 2024, is a landmark regulation from the European Union that categorises AI systems by risk and imposes obligations around transparency, human oversight, and data usage. Non-compliance can lead to significant penalties and reputational damage. Toro helps ensure your AI practices are compliant from day one.
Yes. When employees enter proprietary data into AI platforms - especially those that train on user inputs - there’s a risk that the data could be embedded into the model and later resurfaced in responses to other users. Our AI Security Review identifies these scenarios and helps you put safeguards in place.
