Insights

The regulatory horizon, and the risk of autonomous intelligence.

We track the European regulatory horizon and the emerging risk of agentic AI so boards can govern rather than merely comply. Below is the framework set we advise on.

Frameworks & Standards

NIS2: Directive 2022/2555 — governance and risk-management obligations for essential and important entities.
DORA: Regulation 2022/2554 — digital operational resilience for the financial sector.
EU AI Act: Regulation 2024/1689 — risk-based governance of artificial intelligence, including agentic systems.
GDPR: Regulation 2016/679 — data protection and privacy.
ISO/IEC 27001: Information security management systems (ISMS).
ISO/IEC 42001: AI management systems (AI-SMS).
NIST AI RMF: AI risk management framework.

Agentic AI security & risk

As AI agents gain autonomy, the attack surface becomes behavioural. Our advisory focuses on guardrails, kill-switches and accountability chains that keep agentic systems answerable to human intent — and on threat simulation that tests the decisions, not just the defenses.

Board advisory & liability

Personal liability exposure under the EU AI Act and GDPR, followed by NIS2 and DORA, translated into governance decisions the board can actually take and defend.

Frameworks & Standards

NIS2 (Directive 2022/2555), DORA (Regulation 2022/2554), EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689), GDPR (Regulation 2016/679), ISO/IEC 27001, ISO/IEC 42001, and the NIST AI RMF. NIS2, DORA, the EU AI Act and GDPR are not separate obligations but one operating posture, mapped into a single board-readable control fabric.

Agentic AI Security & Risk

As AI agents gain autonomy, the attack surface becomes behavioural. We design guardrails, kill-switches and accountability chains that keep autonomous and agentic AI systems answerable to human intent, and run tabletop exercises that test the decisions, not just the defenses.
