Why Choose Breach Craft for Your AI Security Risk Assessment

Navigating the Complex Landscape of AI Security

As organizations rapidly adopt AI technologies, the security challenges they present require specialized expertise that bridges traditional cybersecurity knowledge with an understanding of AI-specific vulnerabilities and risks. Many security firms have struggled to adapt to this new landscape, either applying generic security approaches that miss AI-specific concerns or offering theoretical assessments that fail to connect with practical security improvements.

At Breach Craft, we've developed our AI Security Risk Assessment services to address these limitations, providing practical, actionable insights that integrate with your existing security program rather than creating a separate, disconnected AI security silo.

The Breach Craft AI Security Assessment Advantage

1. Framework Integration That Builds on Your Existing Program

The Traditional Approach: Many providers treat AI security as an entirely separate domain, creating disconnected recommendations that don't align with established security programs.

The Breach Craft Advantage: We translate AI-specific findings into your current security framework:

  • Mapping OWASP LLM Top 10 and NIST AI RMF findings to your existing security standards

  • Whether you use NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CIS Critical Security Controls, or both

  • Integration with your established security governance structure

  • Extension of current policies rather than creating separate AI silos

  • Leveraging your existing security tools and processes where appropriate

This integrated approach ensures AI security becomes part of your comprehensive security program rather than adding a new, confusing framework that competes for resources and attention. We don't want to complicate your security program—we want to enhance it by incorporating AI security considerations into the structure you already understand and manage.

2. Practical Controls Beyond Theoretical Risks

The Traditional Approach: Many providers focus on identifying theoretical AI risks without providing practical, implementable control recommendations.

The Breach Craft Advantage: We emphasize actionable security controls:

  • Technical control specifications tailored to your environment

  • Implementation guidance for security teams and developers

  • Procedural controls that align with organizational capabilities

  • Realistic mitigations that balance security and functionality

  • Phased implementation approaches that prioritize critical risks

Our practical focus ensures you receive recommendations you can actually implement, not just a theoretical risk assessment with no clear path forward.

3. Technology-Agnostic Expertise with Practical Experience

The Traditional Approach: Many providers offer generic AI security guidance that doesn't address the specific technologies and platforms your organization uses.

The Breach Craft Advantage: We bring hands-on practical experience across various AI implementations:

  • Extensive experience with major model providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)

  • Security expertise for open-source LLM deployments

  • API security considerations for AI services

  • Enterprise and cloud-based AI implementations

  • Custom model deployment security considerations

This practical experience ensures our recommendations address the real-world security challenges you face rather than theoretical best practices that may not apply to your implementation.

4. Assessment Methodology Tailored to Your AI Maturity

The Traditional Approach: Many providers apply one-size-fits-all assessment approaches regardless of an organization's AI adoption stage or security maturity.

The Breach Craft Advantage: We tailor our assessment methodology to your AI maturity:

  • Shadow AI discovery and governance for early-stage organizations

  • Vendor AI security assessment for organizations using third-party AI services

  • Custom implementation security for organizations building AI solutions

  • Enterprise AI governance for organizations with mature AI programs

  • Specialized assessments for regulated industries with specific compliance requirements

This tailored approach ensures you receive an assessment matched to your actual AI usage rather than a generic evaluation that misses your specific concerns.

5. Business Risk Translation Beyond Technical Vulnerabilities

The Traditional Approach: Many providers focus exclusively on technical vulnerabilities without connecting them to business risks, making it difficult to prioritize remediation efforts.

The Breach Craft Advantage: We translate technical findings into business risk contexts:

  • Business impact analysis of AI security vulnerabilities

  • Regulatory and compliance implications of identified issues

  • Reputational risk considerations specific to AI deployments

  • Intellectual property protection assessment

  • Risk prioritization based on business context

This business-focused approach helps executive leadership understand the importance of AI security findings and supports appropriate resource allocation.

6. Comprehensive Coverage Across AI Risk Categories

The Traditional Approach: Many providers focus narrowly on specific AI risk categories (often prompt injection) while missing other critical considerations.

The Breach Craft Advantage: Our assessments cover the full spectrum of AI security risks:

  • OWASP LLM Top 10 2025 comprehensive coverage

  • NIST AI Risk Management Framework alignment

  • Data security throughout the AI lifecycle

  • Model security and supply chain considerations

  • Integration security between AI and existing systems

  • Operational security for AI systems

  • Privacy and compliance considerations

This comprehensive approach ensures no critical AI security domains are overlooked in your assessment.

7. Flexible Assessment Options: From Gap Analysis to Offensive Testing

The Traditional Approach: Many providers offer only a single assessment approach, either focusing solely on documentation review or lacking the offensive security capabilities to properly test AI implementations.

The Breach Craft Advantage: We offer flexible assessment options tailored to your needs and maturity:

  • Standard Gap Assessment: Comprehensive analysis against frameworks and best practices similar to our traditional gap assessment services

  • Offensive Security Add-On: Red team tactics to actively test your AI implementation's security

    • Prompt injection testing of production systems

    • Data extraction attempt simulation

    • Jailbreak and restriction bypass testing

    • Model manipulation attempts

    • Integration vulnerability exploitation

This flexible approach lets you choose the depth of assessment appropriate for your organization—from identifying control gaps to actively testing your defenses against real-world attack techniques that target AI systems.

8. Comprehensive Security Program Support

The Traditional Approach: Many firms provide one-time assessments without considering the ongoing nature of AI security or integration with broader security initiatives.

The Breach Craft Advantage: Our AI security services are part of a comprehensive security ecosystem:

  • Deep understanding of AI risks through our framework-based approach (see our AI Security Risks Assessment Framework)

  • Post-assessment validation through tabletop exercises to test your AI incident response procedures

  • Ongoing support through our Virtual CISO services to continue maturing your AI security program

  • Integration with traditional security assessments like penetration testing for comprehensive coverage

  • Experienced consultants who understand both AI security and traditional security domains

With team members located across the continental United States (lower 48 states), and our headquarters in the Philadelphia Metro area, we bring nationwide expertise while maintaining close communication throughout the engagement.
