AI APPLICATION LAYER SECURITY TESTING
Make sure your AI stays smart but never reckless
Because you’ve got enough on your plate without an AI outburst making work harder
Let’s break my AI (safely).webp)
Sensitive data walks out the front door
Every time AI shares more than it should, client info or trade secrets can hit the wrong inbox, only for the fallout to land at your feet.
Attackers rewrite the rules
Hackers bend your app’s AI with crafty prompts, letting them skirt controls and grab access you never meant to give.
Mistakes go public fast
A glitchy answer or a leak finds its way into chat logs or customer screens, and before you know it, users and execs are demanding answers.
Regulations are getting personal
Auditors want proof your AI is buttoned up, but patchy controls leave you struggling to respond (and open to penalties when you can’t).
Cleaning up costs more than preventing
When your team scrambles after an incident, it’s not only downtime, but lost trust, angry customers, and months of distraction from building new features.
Catch sneaky attempts to break your app by filtering out trouble before it even starts.
Prevent prompts that dodge your rules from ever reaching your AI or your users.
Keep hackers stuck at the gate (instead of poking around your systems).
Filter out scripts, code, and risky info so your users only see what’s safe.
Block accidental sharing of things that should stay private, from passwords to confidential data.
Give every answer a second look, making sure you won’t have to issue any awkward apologies later.
Shut down creative ways for outsiders to jump over your app’s fences.
Confirm your AI follows the same house rules as the rest of your stack.
Catch privilege grabs so nobody gets a shortcut to sensitive actions or data.
Make sure your AI runs every action through your company’s checks and balances.
Stop out-of-bounds requests, even if someone tries to trick the system.
Keep approvals, budgets, and roles locked in so your process stays tight.
Spot bad setups that can leave the door wide open or hand out keys by accident.
Lock down secrets like API keys so they never end up in the wrong hands.
Make sure every piece of your app (from plugins to pipelines) follows best practices from start to finish.
Show auditors you’ve got every base covered with reports mapped to industry gold standards.
Prove that every AI decision is traced and explained, instead of just trusted.
Demonstrate compliance so the next big question from your board or your regulator feels like just another item on the checklist.
Are you one of those people who hold their breath every time your AI spits out a response?
One odd prompt, one eager user, and suddenly you’re fielding awkward questions from your board, your customers, or, worst of all, the press. Every day, you’re expected to trust code you didn’t write and answers you didn’t review, but the fallout from one small mistake still lands in your lap.
Let’s change that.
With we45’s Application Layer Security Testing, you keep your reputation, your data, and your team’s sanity. Our straightforward approach finds the leaks, closes the loopholes, and keeps your AI playing for your side. Sleep better at night and show up calm to your next board meeting, because every answer your AI gives has you covered.
Start with a clear map of your application’s AI interfaces and all the ways data gets in and out, so you know the territory before the testing even begins.
Test every way users, attackers, and partners might use or abuse those interfaces. Challenge your app with edge cases, weird prompts, and out-of-the-box interactions to see what breaks or leaks.
Dig into both access controls and business logic to make sure sensitive actions stay secured, rules are enforced, and risky requests have no way through.
Wrap up with a simple and actionable report. Get clear steps for your tech team and proof for leadership and auditors, so you can rest easy knowing your AI application security stands up to scrutiny.
Walk away with a no-nonsense list of every weak spot and exposure, explained in real talk that your executives and engineers both understand.
Get an ordered punch list for every risky finding. Jump straight to solutions, and see what matters move up your priority list.
Show off a summary that gets leadership nodding and regulators settling back in their seats without making you decode a wall of tech-speak.
Open the door for a follow-up round that double-checks your team’s fixes and calls out anything hiding in the shadows.
Collect framework-mapped evidence for every test. Make your next audit or compliance review a walk in the park.
Get your team in the loop with a debrief that swaps jargon for real talk and shares the shortcuts and lessons from the latest round.
Any web application, API, or SaaS product that incorporates chatbots, LLM-powered features, or AI-enabled user interfaces can be tested for vulnerabilities, regardless of underlying frameworks or cloud providers.
This goes beyond standard pen testing by specifically targeting AI-driven features for prompt injection, data leakage, unauthorized access, and output sanitization issues, threats that traditional app sec often misses.
Testing is designed to be safe for production and can be run in test environments if needed. Every step is coordinated to avoid downtime or customer impact.
You’ll receive clear risk reports, prioritized action plans for remediation, board-ready summaries, proof of compliance mapping, and an expert walkthrough for your team.
Project length can vary based on the size of your app and complexity of AI features, but most reviews are completed in a few weeks, with upfront scoping and clear timelines provided.
Work is mapped to OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATLAS, OWASP API Security, and NIST AI RMF standards, so your team and auditors have recognized references for every finding.
Absolutely. Retesting and validation support are included to confirm that your remediations close the gaps and to provide you updated reports.
The process can be repeated or adapted as you roll out updates, and knowledge transfer sessions help your team keep pace with evolving risks.
Provide architectural info, sample environments (if possible), and a point of contact for coordination, most of the heavy lifting is handled by the security team.
