BureauSecure™ — Is Your AI Safe For Business?

BureauSecure™ AI Audit is The Agent Bureau's fixed-price AI security health check for UK SMEs. We review the AI tools your team already uses—ChatGPT, Copilot and third-party integrations—and deliver a named BureauSecure AI Audit Report with traffic-light risk ratings, GDPR and shadow-AI notes, Cyber Essentials alignment gaps where relevant, and 3–5 prioritised recommendations in plain English.

/02AI Audit Blueprint

The Plain-English Check before AI becomes a liability

BureauSecure™ is a fixed-price security review of the AI tools your business already uses. You get a named BureauSecure AI Audit Report—traffic-light ratings, data-handling notes and prioritised recommendations—so you can act with confidence. Not a pen test. Not legal advice. Peace of mind as a document.

01The Real Question

Is our AI safe for business — or are we guessing?

Staff may already use ChatGPT, Copilot or tools you never approved. Data may leave the firm in prompts. Clients or insurers may ask about Cyber Essentials—and AI gaps can block you. Most owners know there is risk; few know where to start without jargon.

02The Bureau Angle

A named report. Fixed price. No jargon.

A plain-English AI security review for UK SMEs. Fixed-price report on the tools you already use—so you know what is safe, what needs fixing, and what to tell clients or insurers.

03The Result

BureauSecure AI Audit Report in your hands

Tools assessed, Green / Amber / Red per tool, GDPR and shadow-AI notes, Cyber Essentials alignment gaps where relevant, and 3–5 plain-English recommendations. Optional 30-minute debrief. Then close gaps with BureauGovern™ if you want ongoing policy and evidence.

/04The economics

What we check — Before It Bites.

Guesswork leaves you exposed when a client, insurer or staff incident asks hard questions. BureauSecure™ replaces that with a structured, remote review of the AI you actually use.

AI tool inventory
Partial — known tools only
Listed — approved + likely shadow AI
Data leaving the firm
Unknown what goes into prompts
Flagged per tool with clear notes
Access & accounts
Hope shared logins are fine
Reviewed hygiene and ownership gaps
GDPR / UK data exposure
Vague worry, no notes
Documented plain-English exposure notes
Action plan
None or a long vendor pitch
3–5 priorities you can act on this month
  • We work from your tool list and short usage answers—no admin logins, no pen-test window

  • BureauSecure AI Audit Report you can share with leadership, clients or insurers

  • When you want living policy and evidence, BureauGovern™ picks up from the gaps we flag

/05What you get

A named report.
Not another Vendor Slide Deck.

BureauSecure™ delivers a BureauSecure AI Audit Report in plain English—actionable for owners and ops leads, not only IT. Optional debrief on Standard and Plus.

  • Which AI tools were assessed, with Green / Amber / Red risk ratings you can explain in one sentence.

/06Evidence

Usage is rising. Formal Review Is Not.

UK SMEs are already using AI—often without a written policy or a clear view of what leaves the firm. BureauSecure™ is the snapshot that makes the risk discussable before you buy ongoing governance.

01

31%

formal AI policy (past year)

CIPD Labour Market Outlook Autumn 2025 (YouGov, n=2,019) found only 31% of UK organisations had developed a formal AI policy in the past year—while 76% have staff already using AI.

02

92%

small firms worried about AI risk

FSB The Confidence Code (fieldwork Nov 2025, n=904) found AI use among small firms rising fast while ~92% report worry about AI risks—and roughly 46% lack the knowledge to use it well.

Source: FSB "The Confidence Code" (Nov 2025, n=904)

03

Shadow AI

tools you did not approve

Personal ChatGPT accounts, free plugins and consumer AI apps often sit outside IT procurement. A short inventory and usage brief is enough for us to flag likely exposure—without needing system access.

Source: BureauSecure™ assessment method — tool list + usage answers

04

CE gaps

contracts & insurers ask

Clients and insurers increasingly ask about Cyber Essentials. BureauSecure™ flags AI-related alignment gaps where relevant—it does not issue a Cyber Essentials certificate or replace a full CE assessment.

“We engaged The Agent Bureau to solve a real pain point in UK block management: out-of-hours communication and secure ticket logging. TAB delivered an AI agent that operates as our frontline 24/7, with BureauGovern™ keeping the AI usage policy and human-oversight evidence behind every controlled action. What impressed me most is the reliable caller verification before anything is logged.

Questions about BureauSecure™

  • BureauSecure™ is a fixed-price AI security health check for UK SMEs—named report from £495, plain English, not a full cyber audit.

    BureauSecure™ AI Audit is a fixed-price, plain-English security review of the AI tools a UK SME already uses. You receive a named BureauSecure AI Audit Report covering tools assessed, Green / Amber / Red risk ratings, data-handling and GDPR notes, shadow AI risks, Cyber Essentials alignment gaps where relevant, and 3–5 prioritised recommendations. Starter from £495 ex VAT. It is a business risk assessment—not a full cybersecurity penetration test.

  • Fixed price from £495: Starter £495, Standard £895, Plus £1,495—all ex VAT, invoiced upfront.

    BureauSecure™ AI Audit is priced in three fixed tiers ex VAT: Starter £495 (up to 5 AI tools, written report), Standard £895 (up to 15 tools plus a 30-minute debrief call), and Plus £1,495 (full shadow-AI sweep, staff policy review and debrief). Invoiced upfront. No day-rate ambiguity.

  • No system access required—we work from your tool list and usage answers, remotely and without disruption.

    No. We work from your AI tool list and short usage answers—remote, with no disruption to your day. We do not need admin logins, VPN access or a penetration-test window. Optional Plus includes a staff policy review based on documents you share.

  • No—it reviews AI tools for business risk, not a full network or Cyber Essentials certification audit.

    No. BureauSecure™ focuses on AI tools only: data leaving the firm, shadow AI, access hygiene, GDPR exposure and policy gaps. It is not a network pen test, SOC 2 assessment or Cyber Essentials certification audit. We flag Cyber Essentials alignment gaps when they matter—we do not issue CE certificates.

  • Shadow AI is unapproved AI use by staff—BureauSecure™ flags it so you can close the gap.

    Shadow AI means staff using AI tools you did not approve—personal ChatGPT accounts, free image tools, browser plugins—often with customer or staff data in the prompt. BureauSecure™ identifies likely shadow-AI exposure from your answers; Plus adds a fuller sweep and policy review.

  • Yes—data handling and UK GDPR exposure notes are central; it is risk spotting, not legal advice.

    Yes. Data handling is central to the review: what leaves the business into AI tools, where that data may be processed, and plain-English notes on UK GDPR exposure. This is risk spotting for owners—not legal advice. Serious legal questions still need your own adviser.

  • Book BureauGovern™ for ongoing policy, register and evidence—Secure finds the gaps; Govern helps close them.

    BureauSecure™ is the health check. BureauGovern™ is the ongoing desk: AI usage policy, tool register and human-oversight evidence from £149/mo. Many firms book the audit first, then land Govern Starter or Managed to close the gaps the report prioritises. See /productsbureaugovern AI governance.

  • Report within 5 working days after a short brief—remote assessment, no disruption.

    Book and brief us (15-minute call or short form), we assess remotely, and you receive your BureauSecure AI Audit Report within 5 working days. Standard and Plus include an optional 30-minute debrief call after delivery.

  • UK SME owners and ops leads using AI without a formal review—not enterprise CISO pen-test buyers.

    UK SME owners and operations managers (roughly 10–250 employees) who have started using AI tools without a formal security or compliance review. It is not aimed at CISOs or enterprise security buyers looking for deep technical testing.

  • Pick a tier on this page, request the plan, complete a short brief—report in 5 working days.

    Choose Starter, Standard or Plus on this page and request the plan. We confirm scope, send a short questionnaire, run the remote review and deliver your named report within 5 working days. Questions first? Use the contact form or call 0330 0242 670.
