How I Can Help You
Independent Artificial Intelligence Audit

Is your AI model a competitive advantage or a hidden time bomb?

As a digital professional with two decades of background in analytics and artificial intelligence, I combine systems thinking with the latest research in AI safety.

As an independent AI/LLM REd Teaming expert, I use proactive, hands-on experiments to reveal the hidden vulnerabilities of AI and LLM models (such as prompt injection, data leakage, and model bias) to help Hungarian companies turn technological innovation into a strategic advantage instead of a business risk.

Reputational Damage Prevention

A single malicious or biased AI response is enough for the trust in your brand to collapse in minutes.

Protection of Trade Secrets

Poorly configured LLM models can unintentionally leak sensitive training data, trade secrets, or customer information.

Regulatory Compliance

The EU AI Act imposes strict requirements. The lack of an independent audit could result in heavy fines in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions About AI Red Teaming

What is AI Red Teaming?

Simply put, it’s an “ethical attack” on your AI (Artificial Intelligence) system. I think like a malicious hacker and systematically try to find those hidden vulnerabilities and logical flaws that developers didn’t think of, so you can fix them afterwards.

Isn’t this the same as a regular cybersecurity test?

No. While traditional testing examines the network and infrastructure (e.g., servers), AI Red Teaming targets the AI model itself, its behavior, logic, and interactions with it. The question isn’t whether the server can be breached, but whether the model can be manipulated into doing something it shouldn’t!

Does this only apply to large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini?

While LLMs are currently the most popular, AI Red Teaming extends to all kinds of machine learning models. This can be an image recognition system, a financial fraud detector, a medical diagnostic tool, or a product recommendation system.

Why is this suddenly needed now?

Because AI systems are becoming critical parts of business operations at an incredible speed. The greater their power and responsibility, the greater the risk. What we saw as just an exciting experiment yesterday now has access to live business databases today.

What companies need AI Red Teaming?

Any company that uses or develops AI and takes their data, reputation, and business processes seriously. It’s especially important for companies operating in the financial, healthcare, e-commerce, and technology sectors.

My company only uses AI, doesn’t develop it. Do we need it too?

Yes. Just because you’re using an external service (like OpenAI API), the responsibility is yours for how it behaves in your own system! A poorly implemented external AI service can cause data leaks or reputational damage just the same.

What’s the biggest risk if we skip this?

The biggest risk is an unexpected catastrophe. Everything might work perfectly for months, then due to a single cleverly worded question, your chatbot leaks all customer data! The question is whether your AI system is a competitive advantage or a hidden time bomb.

What exactly do I gain from it? What benefits do I get?

You gain three main benefits: trust (towards your customers and partners), compliance (with upcoming regulations like EU AI Act), and competitive advantage (because you can build a reliable, robust system that doesn’t collapse at the first attack).

Why choose an independent expert over a larger company?

An independent expert is objective, not committed to any particular technology vendor or software. You work directly with me, there are no unnecessary management layers, so communication is faster and the solution is personalized!

Couldn’t my own development team do this?

Developers focus on building the system, not breaking it. This is called “operational blindness”: it’s hard to find flaws in a system you designed yourself. An external ethical expert with an adversarial mindset will notice issues that the internal team would overlook.

What makes your approach different?

My approach is unique: I combine over 15 years of systems-level analytical experience with an AI operations background. I see not just the code, but the entire digital ecosystem, from user behavior to business risks.

What does a typical AI Red Team project look like?

It typically consists of 5 phases: 1. Requirements assessment and goal setting. 2. Reconnaissance and threat modeling. 3. Running active, ethical attacks. 4. Analysis and reporting. 5. Presenting results and recommendations.

How long does such an assessment take?

It depends on the complexity of the system. An “AI Risk Quick Map” typically takes 1-2 weeks, while a deep audit can take several weeks.

What access will you need?

It depends on the type of testing. For a “black-box” test, almost no internal access is needed, I test like an external attacker. For a “white-box” test, access to the code or documentation may be required.

What do I get at the end of the project?

A detailed, understandable report. It consists of two main parts: an executive summary that presents business risks and recommendations, and a technical deep dive that helps your developers fix specific issues.

Will you keep the vulnerabilities found confidential?

Of course. At the beginning of the project, we sign a strict non-disclosure agreement (NDA). The information found is your exclusive property!

How much does an AI Red Team project cost?

Pricing depends on the size and depth of the project. A smaller, well-defined “Quick Map” project has a lower price, while a complete audit of a complex system is based on a custom quote. Request a free consultation and we’ll discuss the options!

What return on investment (ROI) can I expect?

The ROI is the value of avoiding catastrophe. How much is it worth to you to avoid a multi-million fine, losing an entire customer database, or a headline-making data privacy and security scandal? AI Red Teaming is “insurance” against worst-case scenarios.

How does this fit into my budget?

Think of it as a quality assurance cost. It’s much cheaper to proactively find and fix a bug in the development phase than to deal with a serious security incident afterwards.

What is the EU AI Act and why is it important to me?

The EU AI Act is the world’s first comprehensive artificial intelligence regulation. It classifies AI systems into risk levels and prescribes strict testing and documentation requirements for systems in the “high-risk” category (e.g., HR, finance, critical infrastructure).

Does your service help comply with the law?

Yes, that’s exactly one of the main goals. AI Red Teaming is a key element of the independent, external validation and risk assessment that the law requires from high-risk systems.

Is this just a one-time task, or does it need to be done continuously?

After the first deep audit, it’s worth making AI Red Teaming part of the development cycle. As your system evolves and changes, new vulnerabilities may appear, so ongoing “retainer”-based cooperation is recommended for long-term security.

What future threats should I prepare for?

Attacks will become increasingly automated and sophisticated. “AI vs. AI” warfare is expected, where attacking AIs try to bypass defending AIs. Proactive preparation today is the key to tomorrow’s survival!

How do we start the collaboration?

The first step is a free, 30-minute strategic consultation. In this conversation, we assess your unique situation, I understand your goals, and outline a possible collaboration plan, with no obligations.

Where can I learn more about the topic?

The best place to start is the AIQ AI Security Blog, where I regularly publish accessible analyses, case studies, and practical examples of the latest AI security challenges.
