AI Boundary Auditor

A quarterly automated audit service for enterprise security and compliance teams that actively probes the AI coding and chat tools in their stack to confirm sessions, caches, and conversation memory are actually isolated across users and workspaces.

Target user

CISOs, IT security leads, and compliance officers at enterprises using AI coding assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot

Features
  • Synthetic 'canary' prompts injected across multiple user/workspace accounts to detect cross-session leakage, with full evidence trail
  • Automated checks against published isolation guarantees (workspace separation, ZDR, tenant boundaries) for each AI vendor in use
  • Plain-English compliance reports mapped to SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA evidence requirements
  • Vendor risk scorecards that update whenever a new leakage bug is disclosed publicly
Why now

A 204-point HN thread on a real cross-session leak in Claude Code proves enterprises have no reliable way to verify isolation claims; one bug disclosure can blow up a procurement cycle, and CISOs need an independent yardstick.
