AI is moving fast — and adopting it without a security-first approach is exactly where businesses get burned. LDD’s AI services help you adopt AI safely, secure the AI systems you already use, and keep it compliant — from LLM and agent security testing to guardrails, policy and data governance. We come from a cybersecurity and DevSecOps background, so AI security is engineered in, not bolted on. Delivered remotely across South Africa and internationally, aligned to POPIA and GDPR.
What are AI services?
For LDD, AI services mean the secure adoption, security testing and governance of artificial intelligence in your business — deciding where AI genuinely adds value, securing the AI systems and data involved, and keeping it compliant. We don’t chase AI hype or build the AI for you; we make sure the AI you adopt is safe. LDD approaches AI the way we approach everything else: security first, with clear scope and honest advice.
Secure AI adoption & AI security
AI and large language models introduce risks that traditional security testing misses — prompt injection, data leakage, model and agent abuse, insecure integrations and supply-chain exposure. LDD tests and hardens your AI so you can move fast without opening new holes:
- Adversarial AI & LLM security testing — red-teaming your AI apps, chatbots and agents for prompt injection, jailbreaks, data exfiltration and unsafe outputs.
- Securing AI in your pipeline (DevSecOps) — building security into how your AI features are designed, shipped and monitored.
- AI integration & data-flow review — model access, API keys, third-party AI tools and the data they touch, checked against POPIA and GDPR.
Whether you are building AI features or adopting third-party AI tools, we help you do it securely.
Securing the AI you already use
Most businesses are already using AI — staff on ChatGPT and Copilot, AI features baked into SaaS tools, chatbots on the website. That is where data quietly leaks. LDD maps where AI touches your business and locks it down:
- Shadow-AI & third-party tool review — what your team actually uses, and what data those tools can see.
- AI feature & integration hardening — the AI features baked into the SaaS tools you already pay for: what they can see, and where that data goes.
- Monitoring & guardrails — so unsafe AI use is caught early, not discovered after a breach.
You keep using AI to move faster — we make sure it isn’t quietly exposing your data, or your customers’.
AI advisory & governance
Not sure where AI fits, or worried about the risk? We help you choose where AI is worth it, put sensible guardrails and policy in place, and keep data handling aligned to POPIA and GDPR — so AI adoption is deliberate, not a liability.
How an LDD AI engagement works
- 1. Scope & goals — where AI is (or is heading) in your business, and the data and systems involved.
- 2. Assess & test — test and review your AI apps, integrations and third-party AI usage against POPIA and GDPR.
- 3. Harden & validate — prioritised fixes, guardrails and policy, re-tested to verify the fixes address the issues found.
- 4. Handover & assurance — documentation, guardrails and ongoing support.
Every engagement is quoted to your scope.
Why LDD for AI services
- Security-first — a cybersecurity and DevSecOps foundation means AI is adopted safely, not as an afterthought.
- We use AI internally — our own tools run on AI daily, so we know first-hand how these systems break and where they leak.
- Independent — we test and secure AI without selling you the AI itself, so the advice you get is straight.
- Honest and practical — no hype, clear scope, POA pricing, POPIA and GDPR by default.

Frequently asked questions
What are AI services?
For LDD, AI services mean adopting AI safely, security-testing the AI systems and data involved, and governing AI use for POPIA and GDPR. It is an AI-security offering built on a DevSecOps foundation — we secure AI, we don’t build it for you.
Is my AI application or chatbot secure?
AI apps face risks traditional testing misses — prompt injection, data leakage, jailbreaks and unsafe outputs. LDD runs structured adversarial testing of your AI apps, chatbots and agents and reviews their integrations and data flows.
Can you help us adopt AI without breaking POPIA or GDPR?
Yes. We review how AI tools handle your and your customers’ data, set guardrails and policy, and keep the approach aligned to both POPIA and GDPR — important if you serve clients locally and abroad.
Do you build AI, or secure it?
We secure it. LDD focuses on AI security, testing and governance — not building AI for you. If you need AI built, that is a separate specialist discipline: we can point you to reputable engineering teams, then independently security-test and harden whatever you build or buy.
