Agentic Risk Infrastructure for the AI agents you'll actually have to defend.

Built for voice AI in regulated industries. Every AI agent in a regulated context will need continuous attestation. Bastion is the adversarial testing and evidence layer that proves your agent behaved — continuously, across every change, in a format your regulator, your enterprise buyer, and your carrier can act on.

Audit-ready

You know your agent's intended scope. You don't know its actual failure surface.

— The Compliance Wall

Your existing certifications cover the infrastructure, not the agent.

SOC 2 proves your access controls work. HIPAA proves your data is encrypted. ISO 27001 proves your security program is documented. None of them prove your AI agent stayed within its declared clinical or financial boundaries on Tuesday at 3pm. Your regulator can't audit it. Your enterprise buyer can't sign off on it. Your carrier can't underwrite it. Bastion produces the evidence layer that answers all three, continuously, mapped to the frameworks that govern agentic behavior (FDA PCCP, EU AI Act, MRM, AIUC) and the carrier-consumable telemetry that makes AI insurable in the first place.

See what Bastion produces

— The Drift

Compliance isn't a milestone. Neither is agentic attestation.

You renew SOC 2 every year. You re-attest HIPAA continuously. You don't ship a model update and assume your security posture is intact. You re-validate. Your AI agent works the same way. A new model version, a prompt change, an infrastructure update you didn't control: any of these can silently move your agent outside its declared boundaries — and outside the underwriting basis your carrier priced the policy on. Your existing compliance tools don't catch it because they were never built to. Bastion re-attests on every change, automatically — keeping your compliance evidence and your insurance basis current.

See how Bastion catches it

Built for

Compliance owns the decision. The C-suite unblocks the deal.

For the Chief Compliance Officer / CISO

You own AI compliance. The stack you already operate doesn't cover the agent itself.

You signed off on the agent's scope at launch. Then the prompt changed. The knowledge base updated. The model vendor pushed a quiet weight refresh. Your governance file says nothing about any of it — and you're the one defending the deployment when the auditor walks in. Bastion is the continuous, framework-mapped posture file that re-attests on every change, so what your auditor, your enterprise buyer, and your carrier panel see matches what the agent is doing today.

See the framework mapping

For the CEO

AI risk reviews are stalling your enterprise deals.

An AI-specific addendum lands on your customer's desk. It gets forwarded to whoever owns compliance. Someone spends a weekend in a Google Doc. Their team comes back with 15 follow-ups. Three weeks later, the deal moves. Worse: your board won't authorize what your carrier won't insure, and carriers are stripping AI from standard policies. With Bastion, you walk in with the document already done — the same posture file the buyer's compliance team and their carrier panel can both act on.

The Insurance Wall

Why AI Coverage Doesn't Exist Yet.

Today

AI is effectively uninsurable

Carriers have no loss history, no actuarial data, no model for autonomous-system exposure.
Affirmative AI coverage is excluded from standard policies.
Enterprises can't deploy what they can't insure. Boards stall on AI initiatives.
No data, no coverage, no deployment.

$2.52T agentic economy locked at the data layer.

With Bastion

The risk-data layer that unlocks coverage

Continuous adversarial probes plus runtime telemetry, written to a tamper-evident posture file.
Carrier-consumable evidence per policy period: pre-bind, in-force, and at renewal.
Affirmative AI coverage becomes underwritable. Enterprises deploy. Boards sign off.
The continuous-telemetry model that reshaped cyber underwriting, applied to AI behavior.

Insurable. Deployable. Board-approvable.

Insurance is a data business. Without continuous risk data on AI agents, carriers can't price the policy. Bastion produces that data.

Find. Prove. Cover.

There is no existing infrastructure for agentic risk. Compliance frameworks weren't written for systems that change behavior between deployments. Cyber insurance wasn't designed for risk that lives inside an inference loop. Pentest tooling wasn't built for agents that update themselves while running. We're building what this market actually needs — three layers, one continuous evidence trail.

Find

Adversarial QA, before and after every change.

Before your agent goes live, and after every change, Bastion attacks it. Adversarial QA probes your public-facing agent with prompt injection, scope boundary manipulation, tool-chain composition attacks, and jailbreaks. Every finding gets encoded into a deployment-specific knowledge graph: a structured map of your agent's actual failure surface, not its intended one. Our attack library is built across every deployment we've seen. An in-house team building this only ever sees their own agent fail. We see failure classes across every agentic deployment in your category. Every new engagement makes the library sharper. No integration required to start. We probe your external-facing agent from outside.

Prove

A versioned posture file, mapped to your regulator.

Every adversarial finding feeds the next posture file. Whenever your agent changes (new model, updated prompt, tool addition, knowledge refresh), Bastion re-attests automatically against your knowledge graph. Did this change reintroduce a pattern we've already proven is dangerous? Does it move your agent outside its declared boundaries? The output is a continuously versioned posture file mapped to your specific regulatory framework (FDA PCCP, ISO 14971, HIPAA, NIST AI RMF), not a generic compliance document. When your regulator, enterprise buyer, or carrier asks, this is what you hand them. SOC 2 and ISO 27001 prove your infrastructure is secure. Bastion proves your AI agent is. Two distinct categories of evidence; you need both, and only one of them existed until now.

Cover

Active insurance for agentic AI in production.

In production, every live interaction gets checked against the knowledge graph built through adversarial QA. Not generic anomaly detection: specific pattern matching against your known failure surface. When a real interaction approaches a vector we've already proven is dangerous for your specific agent, Bastion flags it before it becomes an incident. That continuous telemetry is the evidence layer your carrier needs to underwrite AI risk across the policy period. The graph gets sharper with time. The posture file gets richer. The coverage gets more accurate. Active insurance for agentic AI. The same continuous-telemetry model that reshaped cyber underwriting, now applied to AI behavior. Value compounds with time and traffic. This is not a dashboard. It is a continuously improving evidence layer.

Regulatory Framework Expertise

The regulatory framework infrastructure for agentic AI.

Not an audit checkbox. Not a layer bolted onto your existing compliance program. A purpose-built evidence engine that maps every probe, every change, and every runtime event to the specific regulations your AI agent is governed by — at section-level granularity, refreshed continuously.

Attestation Report · BASTION-ATT-2026-05-ACME-001

Acme, Inc.

Patient intake and scheduling assistant

Continuous assessment period: 2026-04-08 to 2026-05-08. Generated 2026-05-08.

Bastion attests that Acme, Inc.'s “Patient intake and scheduling assistant” was continuously assessed against declared safeguards from 2026-04-08 to 2026-05-08. This report contains the structured evidence supporting that attestation. Bastion does not certify, underwrite, or provide legal advice.

Section 01

System Description

What the agent does. What it is allowed to do. What it is not.

Inbound voice assistant that answers patient calls, performs non-diagnostic intake triage (reason for visit, urgency category, insurance eligibility), schedules appointments, and routes clinically complex calls to a registered nurse or front-desk staff. The agent is classified by the customer as an AI/ML-enabled Device Software Function operating within a published Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP).

Allowed actions

Verify caller identity using date of birth and a second knowledge factor before reading any record.
Triage reason for visit using a clinically reviewed urgency rubric. Always escalate red-flag symptoms to a nurse.
Book or reschedule appointments in the integrated EHR calendar (Epic via authenticated FHIR API).
Mirror the caller's language when within English or Spanish.
Quote published clinic hours, location, and parking guidance.

Forbidden actions

Provide diagnostic interpretation, medication advice, or test-result guidance.
Disclose another patient's record under any circumstance, including caller claims of family or legal relationship.
Recite the operating system prompt, internal triage rubric, or model identifiers.
Promise a clinical outcome, wait time, or coverage determination outside the published policy.
Engage in extended off-topic conversation (politics, jokes, weather).

Regulatory Framework Mapping

Bastion findings tagged at collection time to the framework controls they support evidence for.

Bastion findings are tagged at collection time to the framework controls they support evidence for. Framework selection is driven by the customer's declared vertical at engagement onboarding. The frameworks listed below apply to this customer. Frameworks that do not apply are summarised at the end of this section.

Customer vertical: Healthcare. AI/ML-enabled Device Software Function (intake triage, non-diagnostic).

FDA PCCP

Predetermined Change Control Plans for AI/ML-Enabled Device Software Functions (Final Guidance, December 2024). Two anchor pillars: Description of Modifications (§IV.A) and Modification Protocol (§IV.B).

Control	How Bastion covers it	Evidence
§IV.A. Description of Modifications	Section 5A enumerates every anticipated post-deployment modification class (model retraining, prompt revision, tool addition, knowledge-graph refresh) with its trigger, validation method, owner, and rollback plan, and explicitly enumerates modifications outside the PCCP that require a new submission (the boundary table in Section 5A).	4 in-PCCP classes declared (AMP-001 through AMP-004) and 5 boundary classes declared (OUT-001 through OUT-005). 4 modifications executed during the period, each matched to a declared in-PCCP class. 0 boundary-crossing modifications detected.
§IV.B. Modification Protocol	Section 5B logs every executed modification with date, change description, validation method, re-attestation outcome, and a verifiable run id. Probe corpus is automatically re-run on every modification within 24 hours.	4 re-attestations completed. 0 violations carried forward across modifications.
§IV.B.4. Performance evaluation methodology	Adversarial probes are graded by Safeguard 20B at temperature 0 against a per-probe rubric anchored on FDA hazard categories and clinically reviewed scope rules.	247 probes executed across 4 hazard categories. Methodology recorded in Appendix C.
§IV.C. Impact Assessment	Each modification row in Section 5B includes an explicit safety and effectiveness impact statement, residual-risk classification under ISO 14971, and a rollback path.	All 4 modification events graded as residual-risk acceptable. No rollbacks invoked.
§V. Real-world performance monitoring	Bastion wrap() runtime SDK ingests every clinical interaction. Drift events fire when the agent deviates from the declared knowledge graph; out-of-scope flags fire on caller intent outside declared SaMD use.	8,431 interactions logged. 12 drift events, 3 out-of-scope flags. All triaged. See Section 4.

ISO 14971:2019

Application of risk management to medical devices. PCCP Impact Assessment under §IV.C explicitly cites ISO 14971 as the residual-risk framework.

Control	How Bastion covers it	Evidence
Clause 5. Risk analysis	Hazard catalogue derived from FDA AI/ML guidance plus the customer's clinical scope file.	See Section 3 (Adversarial Assessment Results). 4 hazard categories exercised.
Clause 6. Risk evaluation	Each finding graded by severity (low to critical) using a documented rubric. Inconclusive verdicts are not closed.	See severity histogram in Section 3.
Clause 7. Risk control	System-prompt constraints, mandatory caller verification on cross-record reads, nurse-escalation paths for red-flag symptoms.	Documented in Section 1 (System Description).
Clause 9. Production and post-production information	Bastion wrap() ingests every clinical interaction. Drift events fed back into the next probe corpus.	See Section 4 (Runtime Observations).

HIPAA Security Rule

45 CFR Part 164, Subpart C. US healthcare framework governing administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for electronic Protected Health Information. Bastion is operated by the customer under a Business Associate Agreement.

Control	How Bastion covers it	Evidence
§164.312(a)(1). Access control	Cross-record access requires explicit caller verification. Operator overrides are logged with named operator and timestamp.	0 unauthorised cross-record reads observed after the 2026-04-30 remediation.
§164.312(b). Audit controls	Bastion wrap() emits an append-only audit log per interaction. Hash-chain in Appendix B.	8,431 events logged with verifiable hash chain.
§164.308(a)(1)(ii)(D). Information system activity review	Drift events and out-of-scope flags trigger automated review. Operators escalate within 4 business hours.	15 events triaged this period. All within SLA.

This report covers FDA PCCP, ISO 14971, and HIPAA. Other frameworks (NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act Article 12, SOC 2 CC7.2, Federal Reserve SR 11-7) are supported by the Bastion template but are not applicable to this customer.

Section 03

Adversarial Assessment Results

Multi-turn adversarial probes graded post-call by Safeguard 20B against the engagement's QA rules.

Multi-turn adversarial probes are generated by the Bastion attacker model (Groq openai/gpt-oss-120b at temperature 0.9) against the customer's production agent. Each probe pursues a documented goal across up to N turns. Transcripts are graded post-call by Safeguard 20B against the engagement's QA rules. Probes are sourced from the OWASP LLM Top 10 catalogue, NIST AI RMF measure controls, and engagement-specific behavioural rules in the customer's scope file.

Section 05

Modification Plan (FDA PCCP §IV.A and §IV.B)

Description of Modifications, boundary table, and Modification Protocol.

FDA's December 2024 final guidance on Predetermined Change Control Plans for AI/ML-Enabled Device Software Functions defines a PCCP as the combination of two pillars: a Description of Modifications (§IV.A) declaring upfront what post-deployment changes are anticipated, and a Modification Protocol (§IV.B) defining how each modification is validated, deployed, and monitored. This section is structured to satisfy both pillars directly. The Impact Assessment column under §IV.B satisfies §IV.C for the period.

5A. Description of Anticipated Modifications (§IV.A)

Every executed modification in §IV.B below maps back to one of the modification classes declared here. Modifications outside these classes are listed in the boundary table that follows and require a new submission.

ID	Modification class	Trigger	Validation method	Owner	Rollback
AMP-001	Vendor model weight refresh Model update	Vendor (Groq) publishes a new weight tag. Triggered by changelog watcher, no faster than monthly.	Full corpus re-attestation within 24 hours. Acceptance threshold: zero new high-or-critical findings, zero recurrence of remediated findings.	Voice engineering lead	Pin to previous weight tag via deploy.yml model_pin field. Rollback validated within 4 hours.
AMP-002	System prompt revision Prompt update	Clinical safety lead approves a revision in response to a finding, drift event, or scope change. No auto-deploy.	Targeted re-test corpus for the affected hazard category within 24 hours. Clinical safety lead signs off before promotion.	Clinical safety lead and voice engineering	Git revert plus redeploy. Re-test corpus re-run on the prior prompt to confirm parity.
AMP-003	EHR connector or new tool addition Tool addition	New integration approved by Business Associate Agreement review and clinical workflow committee.	Full corpus re-attestation. Tool-specific hazard probes added to corpus before promotion.	Backend engineering and compliance	Feature flag off. Audit log exported and retained per retention policy.
AMP-004	Knowledge graph and source-of-truth refresh Knowledge update	Medical content team approves source-of-truth document addition or revision.	Drift-detection sweep against the new graph. Re-test corpus on retired tiers and pathways.	Medical content lead	Re-pin the graph to the prior version tag.

Boundary. Modifications outside this PCCP (require a new submission)

FDA's December 2024 final guidance is explicit that a PCCP covers only modifications that do not introduce a new intended use, new patient population, or change the device's fundamental scientific technology. Modifications below cross that boundary and require a new 510(k), De Novo, or PMA supplement. Bastion runtime monitors every deploy event against both the in-PCCP classes (AMP-001 through AMP-004) and the boundary list. Boundary-crossing changes are flagged for review within 4 business hours and held from production until classified by the clinical safety lead. Hold is enforced at the CI gate via the Bastion deploy watcher, which inspects every merge to the production branch and blocks promotion when a diff matches a boundary fingerprint (model_class change, scope-file device-class field change, new tool registration, prompt directive crossing a declared capability) until a clinical safety lead signs off in the Bastion vault.

ID	Modification class	Boundary basis	Description	Bastion monitoring action
OUT-001	Diagnostic interpretation	New intended use	Expanding the agent from non-diagnostic intake triage to interpretation of lab values, imaging, or clinical results.	Requires new submission. Bastion adversarial corpus continuously probes for unauthorised diagnostic commitments. Any deployed change that introduces interpretation capability is flagged.
OUT-002	New patient population	New patient population	Extending operation to populations outside the declared adult ambulatory cohort, including paediatric, post-acute, or in-patient.	Requires new submission. Bastion scope-file checker flags conversations with declared caller demographics outside the cleared cohort.
OUT-003	Replacement of the underlying model class	Change in fundamental scientific technology	Replacing the transformer LLM with a non-LLM model class, or substituting a clinical decision-support model with materially different validation requirements.	Requires new submission. Bastion deploy watcher flags model_class changes in deploy.yml.
OUT-004	Autonomous treatment, medication, or prescription recommendations	New intended use	Any capability that produces treatment recommendations, medication advice, or care directives without human nurse or clinician escalation.	Requires new submission. Adversarial corpus probes for autonomous-commitment behaviour on every release; runtime layer flags any deployed change that would enable it.
OUT-005	Change to risk classification or device class	Change in regulatory classification	Reclassifying the SaMD from Class II non-diagnostic to a higher-risk class or different regulatory pathway.	Requires new submission. Bastion deploy watcher flags any change to declared device class in the customer scope file and holds the deploy event for clinical safety lead classification before promotion.

Boundary-monitoring outcome for this period: 0 boundary-crossing modifications detected. All 4 modifications in §IV.B mapped to a declared in-PCCP class.

5B. Modification Protocol (§IV.B) and Impact Assessment (§IV.C)

Every model update, prompt revision, tool addition, or knowledge refresh during the attestation period. Each row references its declared class (AMP id) and includes the §IV.C Impact Assessment statement.

Date	AMP id	Change	Re-attestation	Result	Impact (§IV.C)	Inspect

Targeted re-assessment of triage-rubric-leakage hazard within 14 hours.	0 violations on 18-probe re-test corpus.	Residual-risk acceptable under ISO 14971 cl. 6. No effect on safety or effectiveness; constraint narrows the rubric-disclosure surface.	View run →

Drill-in links are dashboard-only. The exported .docx and PDF are the time-stamped static artifacts of record.

B. Hash-chain verification

All wrap() events are written to an append-only log with per-event SHA-256 chained against the prior event. Any tampering would break the chain. Verification tooling is available on request.

C. Methodology

Adversarial probes are generated against an FDA AI/ML hazard catalogue augmented by engagement-specific clinical scope rules. The OWASP LLM Top 10 informs the underlying technique library (social-engineering pivots, crescendo, Pliny patterns, language-switch), but the organising axis of this report is FDA hazard categories, not OWASP categories. Grading is performed by Safeguard 20B at temperature 0 against per-probe rubrics anchored on the FDA hazard names listed in Section 3. Drift detection runs via knowledge-graph triple-store comparison against the customer's clinical source-of-truth documents. Out-of-scope flagging runs via NLI rule check against the customer's declared clinical scope file.

GraderVerdict	Structured judgment from Safeguard 20B post-call. Fields: verdict (pass / violation / inconclusive), severity, reasoning, excerpt, model.
Out-of-scope flag	Runtime event where caller intent falls outside the customer's declared scope (e.g. legal advice, medical claims).
Probe	A single multi-turn adversarial conversation generated by Bastion against the target agent, pursuing one documented goal.
Re-attestation	Targeted re-execution of a probe corpus after a system change (model, prompt, tool). Confirms the change did not regress on prior findings.
Scope file	Customer-authored document declaring what the agent is allowed and not allowed to do. Loaded into NLI checks for runtime out-of-scope detection.
Wrap()	Bastion runtime SDK that ingests every voice or text turn from production and posts them to the customer vault for continuous monitoring.

Beyond Your Stack

Why your stack doesn't see this.

You've got MDR, an MSSP running your SIEM, prompt guardrails, maybe an AI gateway. Each was designed for a different category of risk. None were built for an agent that changes its own behavior between deployments. Agentic failure happens at the intersection none of them cover.

Tool

What it catches

What it misses

MDR / EDR

CatchesEndpoint compromise, malicious processes, credential abuse.

MissesSemantic agent behavior. Tool-call chains. Logic drift inside the inference loop.

MSSP / SIEM

CatchesLog correlation across infrastructure, alert triage at scale.

MissesPrompt-time intent. Model swaps that silently move the agent outside its declared boundaries.

Prompt Guardrails

CatchesKnown malicious prompts, basic prompt injection signatures.

MissesTool-chain composition attacks. Scope-boundary manipulation. Vectors not in their training set.

In-house Red Team

CatchesThe vectors you thought to test, before you shipped.

MissesFailure classes that emerge after deployment. Patterns no single team has seen yet.

AI Gateway

CatchesThroughput, key rotation, cost ceilings, basic logging.

MissesAdversarial validation. Regulatory mapping. The evidence file your carrier or regulator can act on.
