Turn access findings into clear priorities.
A long list of permissions is not yet a risk assessment. Consider what could go wrong, what information is exposed and whether the available controls would limit the impact.
What to look for
- Credentials in configuration files and other places where they may be exposed.
- Workflows that combine untrusted content with powerful tools or sensitive data.
- Missing approvals, weak boundaries and permissions that enable unnecessary actions.
A practical example
An agent reads incoming documents and can send email attachments. A scoped review examines whether instructions inside a document could influence tool use, whether recipients are restricted and whether a person must approve sensitive exports. Any testing uses explicitly authorised data and systems.
The result
Evidence-based findings prioritised by potential impact and practical exposure. Each finding includes the affected workflow, its limitations and a recommended next step.
A focused aioscope audit helps identify gaps and define next steps. Implementation, ongoing monitoring and any testing are agreed separately within an authorised scope.
