SichGate AI Governance

Turn model testing into governance evidence.

SichGate delivers managed AI governance audits for organizations deploying language models in regulated environments. We combine adversarial testing with expert review to document how your model actually behaves, and map those findings to the frameworks your regulators, auditors, and customers expect.

Managed audits for organizations accountable for their AI.

Who this is for

Organizations that must demonstrate responsible AI use to external stakeholders.

  • Healthcare and life sciences

    Organizations deploying AI in clinical, patient-facing, or health data workflows.

  • Financial services and fintech

    Companies using AI in customer interactions, risk decisions, or regulated processes.

  • Legal and professional services

    Firms relying on AI for research, drafting, or client-facing work.

  • Defense and public sector

    Organizations requiring documented assurance for AI systems.

    See SichGate for Defense
  • Compliance, risk, and legal teams

    Teams responsible for AI oversight, procurement, and vendor due diligence.

  • Audit and advisory firms

    Firms seeking technical testing to support their AI assurance engagements.

The challenge

Policies do not prove behavior.

Most AI governance programs rely on policies, questionnaires, and vendor documentation. These describe how a model is intended to behave. They rarely show how it behaves under adversarial pressure, or whether safety holds once the model has been fine-tuned and compressed for production.

Regulators and auditors are increasingly asking for evidence, not intent. Organizations that cannot demonstrate tested model behavior face audit findings, procurement delays, and exposure when a model fails in production.

SichGate provides that evidence: documented, reproducible testing of the model you actually deploy, interpreted and mapped by specialists.

What the audit covers

Five parts, from testing to expert review.

Adversarial safety testing

Your model is tested against SichGate's adversarial probe battery, covering harmful content, jailbreaks, prompt injection, data leakage, and domain-specific risks.

Lifecycle drift analysis

Base, fine-tuned, and quantized versions of your model are compared to identify where safety behavior changes between development and production.

Privacy and data handling review

Evaluation of how the model handles regulated and sensitive data, including:

  • Protected Health Information (PHI)

    Whether the model discloses, infers, or retains patient health information.

  • Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

    Leakage, memorization, and re-identification risks.

  • Confidential business data

    Exposure through prompt injection, extraction attacks, or unsafe outputs.

Framework mapping

Findings are mapped to relevant governance frameworks, privacy regulations, and standards, including:

AI governance

  • EU AI Act
  • NIST AI Risk Management Framework
  • ISO/IEC 42001

Privacy and data protection

  • HIPAA (Privacy and Security Rules)
  • GDPR
  • CCPA / CPRA

AI security

  • OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications
  • MITRE ATLAS

Plus sector-specific requirements relevant to your industry.

Expert review

Every audit is reviewed and interpreted by SichGate specialists, so findings are prioritized by real-world risk rather than raw test counts.

What you receive

Documentation built for review by people outside your team.

  • Executive summary

    For leadership, boards, and non-technical stakeholders.

  • Detailed technical findings

    By risk category and model lifecycle stage.

  • Framework mapping report

    Linking each finding to relevant regulatory, privacy, and standards requirements.

  • Remediation guidance

    Prioritized, actionable recommendations.

  • AI Bill of Materials (AI-BOM)

    Documenting the model, its versions, and its configuration.

  • Audit-ready evidence package

    Signed, tamper-evident logs suitable for auditor and regulator review.

  • SichGate attestation tier

    SG-1 through SG-4, reflecting the model's audited safety posture.

How it works

From scoping to re-audit.

  1. 1

    Scoping

    We work with your team to understand the model, its use case, its deployment environment, the data it handles, and the frameworks that apply to your organization.

  2. 2

    Testing

    SichGate runs adversarial, privacy, and drift testing against your model in the environment that fits your requirements, including on-premises and air-gapped configurations.

  3. 3

    Analysis and mapping

    Our specialists review results, filter noise, assess severity, and map findings to the applicable frameworks and regulations.

  4. 4

    Reporting and review

    We deliver the full audit report and evidence package, and walk your team through the findings and remediation priorities.

  5. 5

    Re-audit

    After remediation, the model can be retested to verify fixes and update your evidence record.

Automated testing and managed audits

Two complementary services. Many organizations use both.

The SichGate Platform

Automated adversarial testing for engineering teams, used as a pre-release gate in the development process.

Frequently asked questions

Is a SichGate audit a formal regulatory audit or certification?

No. A SichGate audit is an independent technical audit of model behavior, with findings mapped to relevant frameworks and regulations. It does not constitute legal advice, a regulatory conformity assessment, or a formal certification by a regulator or accredited body. We recommend reviewing results with your legal and compliance advisors.

How does this relate to our external auditors?

SichGate complements the work of external auditors and advisory firms by supplying the technical testing evidence that policy-based reviews cannot provide. We also partner directly with audit and advisory firms.

Do you need access to our model weights?

Lifecycle drift analysis requires weight access, since it compares model versions directly. API-only models can be audited through behavioral testing. Where required, testing can run entirely within your infrastructure.

Which models can be audited?

SichGate audits language models, including base, fine-tuned, and quantized versions.

How is our data handled?

Audit data is handled under strict confidentiality. For organizations with heightened requirements, testing can be performed on-premises or in air-gapped environments so that no data leaves your control.

Can SichGate audit models that process PHI or personal data?

Yes. Audits can be performed entirely within your infrastructure, so PHI and personal data never leave your control.
