What is "white-hat" hacking, and is it legal?
White-hat hacking means attacking systems with the owner's written permission to find weaknesses before criminals do. Every Taurion engagement starts with a signed authorization and rules of engagement defining exactly what's in scope, what's off-limits, and when testing happens. Without that paperwork, we don't touch a thing.
We only use ChatGPT, Copilot and a few AI plugins. Do we really need AI red teaming?
Probably more than you think. The risk isn't the chatbot itself; it's what it's connected to. If an AI tool can read your email, open files, access your CRM, write code or trigger payments, a hidden instruction in a document or web page could make it act against you. Our AI Exposure Assessment tells you in about two weeks whether that's a real problem for your business.
How is this different from a normal penetration test?
A traditional pentest focuses on servers, networks and web apps. Those are still critical, and we do them. But AI agents are a new kind of privileged "identity" that can be manipulated with words instead of code, and those flaws often never get a CVE, so standard scanners miss them. We test both the classic attack surface and the AI layer, and how they connect.
Will testing disrupt our business?
We plan around your operations. Risky tests can be run against staging environments, scheduled after hours, or performed with a "stop" contact on call. Deepfake and social-engineering drills are only run with explicit leadership consent and agreed boundaries.
What do we get at the end?
A plain-English executive summary for leadership, a detailed technical report for your IT team or vendor, proof-of-concept evidence for each finding, a prioritized fix list, and a retest to verify the fixes worked.
Do you work with small and mid-sized businesses?
Yes. Small and mid-sized businesses are adopting AI tools fastest and usually have the least visibility into what those tools can access. Our fixed-fee AI Exposure Assessment is designed specifically for that.
