Independent, Methodology-Driven Reviews

AIsecurityPlatform.com is a methodology-driven review site for the AI security category. We test, score, and rank the tools security teams are evaluating in 2026 — AI data loss prevention, shadow AI discovery, AI runtime defense, and AI red-teaming — against published criteria that are aligned with the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications 2025, the OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications 2026, and ISO/IEC 42001.

We do not sell consulting. We do not run the tools we cover. We do not accept payment for placement. Our scoring rubric, conflict-of-interest policy, and review cadence are public.

The August 2, 2026 Deadline

High-risk AI obligations under the EU AI Act take effect on August 2, 2026. If you provide or deploy a high-risk AI system in the EU, the clock is short. Our EU AI Act Compliance Roadmap maps Article 16 obligations — quality management, technical documentation, logging, conformity assessment, corrective action, and registration — onto a 90-day schedule for late starters.

Disclosed ownership.

Cyber Security Services, which operates this site, also produces AILeakShield. We disclose this on every page that mentions AILeakShield and in the footer. See our full disclosure.

Framework alignment

Every review and guide ties back to NIST AI RMF, OWASP, ISO 42001, or the EU AI Act not to a vendor's marketing categories.

Why this site exists

video-dot

AI security is a young category. Most published “top 10” lists are written by vendors who appear in their own list. Comparison pages on the open web are usually published by one of the products being compared. Analyst grids carry useful information but are influenced by paid analyst access. Buyers are left assembling a picture from sources that have, in different ways, the same incentive.

AIsecurityPlatform.com is the alternative. Methodology-driven reviews, ranked Best Of lists scored against a public rubric, head-to-head comparisons that include open questions where information is unavailable, & framework-aligned guides that cite primary sources. Editorial independence is the product.
