Operator-grade
The team that scopes your work in Liverpool is the team that runs it. The architects are the operators. Findings come from people who've actually exploited what they're describing — not desk research.
Liverpool, United Kingdom
AI Red Teaming in Liverpool.
Senior-led ai red teaming engagements across Liverpool (North West). Adversarial testing for production LLM and AI systems — prompt injection, jailbreaks, training-data leakage, agentic tool abuse and model manipulation tested against your real deployments.
Over 200 distinct jailbreak techniques in our active library — across Basalt operations in the past 12 months.
THREAT VECTOR
Threats facing Liverpool maritime.
The maritime, healthcare concentration around Liverpool sees port-system intrusion, GPS spoofing and bill-of-lading fraud. Our ai red teaming work in North West is scoped against this real threat profile, not a generic checklist.
Common pains
- LLM features shipped without an attacker’s perspective
- No process for testing prompt injection or jailbreaks
- Agents wired to tools and data with no abuse modelling
ENGAGEMENT
How we engage.
- Adversarial test suite covering OWASP LLM Top 10
- Prompt injection and jailbreak findings with reproductions
- Tool-use and agent abuse path analysis
- Hardening recommendations and CI guardrails
Reporting
Every finding ships with a control reference against NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework and UK GDPR, with NCSC UK guidance cited where it changes the remediation priority. Board reporting follows the FCA SYSC operational resilience expectation set.
LOCAL CONTEXT
Local context.
Basalt delivers ai red teaming to organisations across Liverpool and the wider North West region (population ~500k). The maritime, healthcare sectors that anchor the region face a distinct threat profile — port-system intrusion, GPS spoofing and bill-of-lading fraud — and our engagements are scoped to that, not a generic playbook. Reporting maps cleanly to the NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework and UK GDPR that British boards already use, with regulator context (NCSC UK) called out where it changes a remediation priority.
RATIONALE
Why Basalt for ai red teaming in Liverpool.
United Kingdom threat fluency
Local context matters: port-system intrusion, GPS spoofing and bill-of-lading fraud. Basalt's Liverpool engagements are scoped to the threat profile of maritime teams in North West, not a generic global checklist.
2026 attack surface
Where most regional providers are still testing for 2022 threat models, Basalt actively works agentic AI tool-abuse and indirect prompt injection at scale and identity-first attack chains across federated SaaS in production engagements. Forward-leaning, not theoretical.
2026 THREAT LANDSCAPE
What we test for.
- Agentic AI tool-abuse and indirect prompt injection at scale
- MCP server and AI-tool supply chain compromise
- Post-quantum cryptographic readiness (NIST PQC migration)
- Identity-first attack chains across federated SaaS
- Open-source software supply chain (post-xz, post-tj-actions)
Cyber security in United Kingdom can't be done with last year's threat models. The Basalt practice runs against current attacker tradecraft — agentic AI abuse, MCP and AI-tool supply chain, post-quantum readiness — alongside the legacy infrastructure work that still keeps most organisations awake at night.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How fast can Basalt start a ai red teaming engagement in Liverpool?
Most Liverpool engagements scope inside one week and start within two. Retainer clients can trigger work the same day. We do not pipeline British clients through junior teams — a senior consultant scopes and runs the work end-to-end.
Do you do ai red teaming on-site in Liverpool or remote?
Both. Sensitive work — classified-adjacent environments, live incident response, OT walkthroughs — gets on-site time in Liverpool and the wider North West region. Routine assessments and detection engineering run remote with a tight feedback loop.
How does Basalt map findings to British regulators?
Every finding ships with a control reference against the NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework and UK GDPR so your compliance team is not re-mapping our report. Where NCSC UK guidance exists for the specific finding, we cite it inline. Board-level reporting follows the FCA SYSC operational resilience expectation set.
What makes ai red teaming in Liverpool different from a generic engagement?
The maritime sector concentration in Liverpool drives a different threat model than a generic British engagement — port-system intrusion, GPS spoofing and bill-of-lading fraud. Our scoping reflects that, and so does the test library we bring to the work.
Is Basalt set up for AI-era threats, not just legacy infrastructure?
Yes — this is core to how we work. Basalt actively researches and tests against agentic AI tool-abuse and indirect prompt injection at scale, MCP server and AI-tool supply chain compromise and identity-first attack chains across federated SaaS. Most regional providers haven't mapped these attack paths; we run them in production against client systems with explicit scope.
