AI Security & Governance

We make AI pass the audit.

amara consult helps regulated enterprises deploy AI that security can approve and auditors can follow. The practice combines 25 years in information security, 15 of them in GRC, with AI systems we design, build and run ourselves.

Positioning

Many teams can build AI. Many teams can audit it. Regulated enterprises need both in one delivery model.

amara consult works across both sides.

The compliance side is grounded in ISO 27001, NIS2, risk and audit work in regulated industry. The build side is proven through multi-agent AI systems running in production.

Together, they move AI projects from "security cannot sign this off" to "approved, evidenced and live."

Why now

Enterprise AI rarely fails because of the model. It fails because the governance layer is missing.

Every enterprise is under pressure to deploy AI. Many initiatives still stall on the governance layer: missing policy, oversight, audit trail and accountable ownership.

In a regulated company, that missing layer is the project killer. Internal audit or security stops the rollout before the value reaches the business.

The EU AI Act applies in stages: first provisions have applied since 2025, with broad application from 2 August 2026. Transition periods for high-risk systems depend on category and current simplification rules. The pattern is familiar. The subject is new.

02

Policies

AI Governance Policy Pack

Acceptable use, data handling, agent governance, human oversight and incident response, mapped to the EU AI Act, ISO 42001 and your existing ISMS. One system, not two.

03

Pilot

Governed Pilot

One or two working AI use cases, built with oversight, logging, data clarity and evidence that security can defend.

Rollout

Rollout & AI Management System

Deployment, guardrails, team enablement and an ISO 42001-oriented AI management system. Vendor-neutral: we advise on the right stack, then make the evidence understandable.

Plan rollout

Proof, not slides

We do not pitch AI capability from a deck. We show working systems we have built.

GRC platform

A compliance platform designed and built end to end, with a production help centre and deep knowledge base. The product is the demonstration.

Agentic delivery loop

Builder and QA agents ship real modules against a shared task board, with human review and escalation built into the process.

Sovereign AI product

A second product built on the same engine: multi-agent, local-first and designed for environments where data control matters.

Governed architecture

Everything we deploy is governed the way we would tell you to govern yours: oversight, logging and containment from day one.

Agentic delivery

A governed software factory for regulated teams.

We run a closed-loop, multi-agent development system in production: a builder agent writes code; an autonomous QA agent tests it, records defects on a shared task board; the builder fixes; QA re-tests.

Every defect, fix and re-test is logged. The audit trail becomes a by-product of the operating model, not a separate reporting exercise.

The same pattern can be adapted for client environments: writer agent, tester agent, shared state and human escalation, structured against ISO 27001 and ISO 42001.

Experience

The practice is built on security work before AI, and AI work beyond slides.

Roots

Infrastructure roots

The advice rests on having operated the infrastructure, not just audited it: Active Directory, Citrix farms, datacentres and business continuity in banking, real-estate finance and IT services.

Standards

Built in the language regulated buyers already use.

Certified ISMS Auditor

Certified ISMS Auditor according to ISO/IEC 27001, ICO.

Working standards

ISO 27001 · ISO 42001 · NIS2 · EU AI Act.

Governed by design

Oversight, logging and containment from day one, not bolted on after the pilot already exists.

Sovereign where it matters

Local and on-prem options so your data stays yours when the risk profile demands it.

Who we work with

Regulated mid-to-large enterprises where the CISO has a veto and the AI Act timeline is real.

If you place senior security and AI-governance expertise into regulated clients, this is the profile your hardest briefs ask for. amara consult is operated by amara information security GmbH.

Let us talk before governance becomes the reason your AI project stops.
