How Guava keeps your systems and data safe
You give me access to your tenant, your data and often your clients’ data. This is how I handle it, and it goes into writing before work starts. Last updated November 3, 2026.
Access
- Your accounts stay yours. You own every account, line of code and license I set up.
- I use the narrowest access that works, and I log what I touch.
- Admin access goes back to you at handover.
- Every Guava account, from Google and Notion to GitHub and the AI tools I work in, uses multi-factor authentication.
Your data
- Your data stays in your accounts wherever possible.
- Every Rollout starts with an AI Security Check: oversharing, shadow AI, and which AI tools can see your data. On Microsoft 365, it fixes oversharing and sets sensitivity labels before Copilot can see anything.
- Ongoing Optimization & Governance keeps an inventory of the AI tools, connectors and agents your team uses.
- My own AI usage is public on the Live AI Dashboard: model requests and tokens, with sensitive values masked before storage. Prompts and responses are never captured.
Paperwork
- Every engagement is covered by an NDA, and I’ll sign yours.
- I’ll sign your data processing agreement (DPA).
- I’ll fill in your vendor security questionnaire before you sign.
- Every engagement has a written scope and a fixed fee.
AI Red Teaming & Penetration Testing
I test the systems your team and clients rely on, including the AI you’ve rolled out. Priced after a scoping call, as a fixed fee in writing.
- AI red teaming
- Assistants, agents and Copilot setups, tested for prompt injection, data leakage and oversharing.
- Priced after scoping
- Web apps and APIs
- Client portals, internal tools and the APIs behind them.
- Priced after scoping
- External network
- Internet-facing hosts, VPNs and remote access.
- Priced after scoping
- Microsoft 365 and cloud configuration
- Entra ID, conditional access, SharePoint sharing, and Azure and AWS settings.
- Priced after scoping
How it works
- A scoping call: what’s in scope, what’s off limits, and when testing can run.
- Written authorization and rules of engagement, signed by someone who can approve testing of every system in scope. No testing starts without it.
- Testing inside the agreed window.
- A written report: each finding ranked by severity, with how to fix it.
