07AI Security Pillar

Monitoring and Threat Detection

Monitor AI usage, suspicious patterns, system changes, and security events after launch.

Business focus

Maintain visibility

Why it matters

Security starts with a defined business boundary

AI monitoring combines activity logs, attack-pattern tracking, anomaly detection, integrity checks, and clear escalation paths.

Business risk

A business cannot investigate misuse, drift, or an unsafe action if it cannot see what the system accessed, generated, attempted, or changed.

What this pillar covers
  • Prompt, retrieval, tool, and activity logs
  • Attack-pattern tracking
  • Anomaly and integrity monitoring
  • Security alerts and escalation

Questions for leadership

  • Which AI events are recorded and for how long?
  • What behaviour should trigger an alert or pause?
  • Who reviews anomalies, and what evidence do they receive?
  • Can the team investigate the model, data, prompt, and action together?
Practical control checklist

Put the pillar into practice

  1. 1Log identities, inputs, sources, tools, approvals, outputs, and errors.
  2. 2Protect logs from unauthorized access or alteration.
  3. 3Define expected usage, cost, latency, and error patterns.
  4. 4Alert on unusual access, repeated attacks, or integrity changes.
  5. 5Test the escalation and evidence-collection process.
