Core Capabilities

Everything AI Assurance Requires

Assurance, investigation, hunting and inspection — built for models, agents, RAG pipelines and MCP servers.

01
Assurance

AEVA

Artificial Intelligence Evidence, Validation & Assurance.

A structured lifecycle for discovering AI systems, testing their behavior and exposure, validating controls, and producing defensible evidence for risk decisions.

02
Investigation

AI Forensics

Evidence reconstruction and investigation for AI systems.

Reconstruct prompts, retrieved context, agent and tool-call timelines, and model provenance to support post-incident investigation.

Explore
03
Hunting

AI Threat Hunting

Hunting hidden threats across models, agents and AI workflows.

Proactively surface behavior drift, poisoned context, agent manipulation and AI supply-chain risk before they become incidents.

Explore
04
Inspection

Model MRI

Black-box behavioral drift detection for AI models.

A structured probe battery profiles model behavior; Jensen-Shannon divergence against a baseline quantifies drift over time — no access to weights or internals required.

01 / Assurance

AEVA

Artificial Intelligence Evidence, Validation & Assurance.

AEVA answers the questions every organization deploying AI eventually has to face:

  • What AI systems are we actually using?
  • Can they be manipulated or behave outside their intended purpose?
  • Do the security controls around them actually work?
  • Can we produce defensible evidence to support deployment and risk decisions?

How AEVA Works

The Assurance Lifecycle

01

Discover

Understand the AI system and its context.

02

Assess

Test behavior, exposure and attack paths.

03

Attack

Run adversarial attacks against models, agents and defenses.

04

Validate

Verify security controls and response.

05

Observe

Monitor behavior and drift over time.

06

Collect Evidence

Preserve traceable technical proof.

07

Find

Surface findings and residual risk.

08

Remediate

Close gaps and strengthen controls.

09

Retest

Reassess when systems and risks change.

Forensic Timeline

  • Prompt input captured
  • Retrieval context sourced
  • Model reasoning captured
  • Agent plan executed
  • Tool call logged
  • Action outcome recorded
  • Control response verified
  • Evidence preserved
02 / Investigation

AI Forensics

Evidence reconstruction and investigation for AI systems.

Every interaction leaves a trail. Cytomate reconstructs that trail end-to-end — from the original prompt through retrieval, model reasoning, agent and tool activity, to the controls that responded and the evidence preserved.

  • Prompt & interaction reconstruction
  • RAG & retrieved-context evidence
  • Agent & tool-call timelines
  • Model & application provenance
  • Memory & state reconstruction
  • Forensic evidence preservation
  • Post-incident investigation
03 / Hunting

AI Threat Hunting

Hunting hidden threats across models, agents and AI workflows.

Hunting Focus Areas

Hidden or abnormal model behavior Malicious model components Agent manipulation Poisoned memory RAG poisoning MCP & tool abuse Suspicious behavioral drift Covert agent interactions AI supply-chain threats Model-native attack techniques

Behavior Drift

Unexpected changes in decisions, refusals or actions.

Poisoned Context

RAG, memory or tool content designed to redirect behavior.

Agent Manipulation

Unsafe tool use, permission abuse or chained actions.

Supply-Chain Risk

Suspicious model components, adapters or dependencies.

04 / Inspection

Model MRI

Black-box behavioral drift detection for AI models — no access to weights, activations or internals required.

Probe Battery

A structured battery of prompts run consistently against the model to characterize its behavior under normal, adversarial and policy-relevant conditions.

Baseline Capture

Response distributions are captured from a known-good baseline run, establishing what normal behavior looks like for this model.

Drift Scoring

Jensen-Shannon divergence between baseline and current response distributions quantifies how far model behavior has drifted.

Black-Box by Design

Runs entirely against model outputs — no access to weights, activations or internals is required to detect drift.

Assurance Depth

Matched to the Access You Can Give

Level 01

Black Box

No internal access required.

  • API-accessible models
  • Behavioral testing
  • Model MRI
  • Policy conformance
  • Adversarial evaluation
  • Regression monitoring
Level 03

White Box

Full model-internal access.

  • Model artifacts
  • Weights
  • Activations
  • Internal representations

Model-internal analysis depends on the level of access available to the model. Cytomate does not imply that all internal model properties can be proven through black-box testing.
