AI Application Penetration Testing
Penetration testing for AI-powered applications: the model, the app layer wiring it together, and the classic web and API flaws that still apply.

What is AI Application Penetration Testing?
AI application penetration testing focuses on the product built around a model: how prompts and outputs are handled, how sessions and identity work, how the app validates and renders model output, and how the LLM connects to your data and tools.
Why it matters
Many AI breaches are not model failures at all, they are ordinary application flaws made worse by an LLM: insecure output handling that leads to XSS, broken access control exposed through a chatbot, or a model with far more data access than the user driving it.
How Solusec tests it
We test the whole application, LLM-specific attacks plus the web and API testing we have done for years, so the AI feature and the product it lives in are both covered.
AI testing, led by a human
Solusec is one of the first organisations worldwide accredited under CREST's AI-Enabled Penetration Testing standard, so our use of AI is independently assured: responsible, transparent and always human-led. You get faster, broader testing, your data stays out of public AI tools, and every finding is validated by a qualified tester. Read about the accreditation.
What you get
You get a clear, prioritised report mapped to business risk, a walkthrough of every finding with practical fixes your developers can action, and a free retest once you have remediated. No scanner dump, no jargon, no sales team: you deal directly with the tester.
Talk to us about testing
Tell us what you need looked at and we will tell you what the work actually involves, what it costs and when we can do it. CREST accredited, and the testing is done by the person you speak to.
Common questions
Do you cover normal web vulnerabilities too?
Yes. AI apps are still web apps. We test both the AI-specific and the conventional attack surface.
What about insecure output handling?
We specifically test whether model output is safely handled, a common route to XSS and injection in AI apps.
How quickly can testing start?
After a short, free scoping call we give a fixed price and a start date, often within days.
Is your AI use safe and independently assured?
Yes. Solusec holds CREST's AI-Enabled Penetration Testing accreditation, which independently assures that our AI use is responsible, secure and human-led.

Understand your exposure
An attacker’s first move is not an attack, it is a look. So we look first, and send you what we find, worst first.
- Services and ports you did not know were open
- Security misconfigurations on anything public facing
- Known vulnerabilities already indexed by engines like Shodan
- Company credentials sitting in known breach data
The only question is: do you know where and how to look?
We reply within one business day. Prefer to talk first? 01902 288763 or info@solusec.co.uk.
Nothing is touched on your systems. It is all public and already indexed, just scattered. We pull it together, which is what an attacker does first.
