Securing the AI Future

LittleData is a specialist AI security consultancy helping organisations protect their AI systems, comply with emerging regulation, and build responsible AI practices.

Our Story

Founded with a mission to make AI security accessible to every organisation, LittleData brings together expertise in cybersecurity, machine learning, and regulatory compliance.

As AI adoption accelerates, so do the risks. From adversarial attacks on models to data poisoning, prompt injection, and supply chain vulnerabilities, AI systems face threats that traditional security tools were never designed to handle.

We created LittleData to bridge this gap, providing hands on security testing, continuous monitoring, and a purpose built AI Risk Platform that gives organisations real-time visibility into their AI risk posture.

What We Do

Red Teams

We simulate real world attacks against your AI systems, adversarial ML, prompt injection, data poisoning, model theft, to find vulnerabilities before attackers do.

Blue Teams

We build and operate defensive capabilities, monitoring, detection, and response for AI specific threats across your infrastructure.

Purple Teams

We run collaborative exercises that combine offensive and defensive perspectives, closing gaps and maturing your AI security programme over time.

Our Approach

Security-First

Every engagement starts from a security mindset. We treat AI models, training data, and inference pipelines as critical assets requiring dedicated protection.

Practical & Actionable

We deliver clear, prioritised findings with remediation guidance your teams can implement immediately — not just theoretical risk reports.

Continuous Improvement

AI security is not a one-time exercise. We help you build ongoing programmes with regular testing, monitoring, and maturity assessments.
