A senior specialist who helps companies adopt AI without creating unmanaged security, privacy, or governance exposure. Unlike a general security consultant, an AI security advisor covers model and vendor risk, agent autonomy and permissions, AI incident readiness, and board-level AI governance — and unlike an AI ethics consultant, the focus is operational controls, not principles documents.
When any of these are true: you're deploying AI agents that can act, not just answer; AI features are shipping faster than security review can keep up; your board has started asking AI risk questions you can't crisply answer; you're in a regulated industry adopting AI; or you're acquiring a company with meaningful AI exposure.
AI governance defines what your organization allows AI to do; AI security enforces it. Most companies have a governance document and no enforcement. The gap between the two is where incidents happen — recent autonomous-agent incidents have been precisely governance-says-one-thing, environment-allows-another failures.
The exposure created when AI systems can take actions — call APIs, use credentials, move data, write code — rather than just generate content. The risk profile changes because agents act with legitimate permissions at machine speed, which defeats detection models built for human attackers.
Usually partially. Most security teams are strong on infrastructure and application security but haven't yet built muscle on model risk, agent permissioning, or AI vendor terms. An advisor doesn't replace the team — it accelerates it and gives leadership an independent view.
Readiness assessments start at $15,000 fixed-scope. Fractional executive retainers are quoted by scope, typically $8,000–$15,000 per month. Board briefings are priced per session.
Selectively. The practice is built for boards and executive teams of mid-market and enterprise companies. For smaller companies we occasionally run a compressed assessment; ask on the briefing call.
Yes. We sell no software, take no vendor commissions, and have no reseller relationships. Recommendations are unconflicted.
