Govern AI with confidence.
Not assumption.
Quod Orbis helps organisations design, implement and continuously prove their AI controls, from Shadow AI risk to regulatory compliance.
Quod Orbis is trusted by companies worldwide...
Why this matters
As cybersecurity threats grow more sophisticated and regulators tighten their grip, the gap between using AI and governing it safely becomes your biggest business risk. Quod Orbis delivers expert AI governance consulting to close that gap; pragmatically, permanently and with evidence to prove it.
Outside-in: attackers using AI against you
AI-enabled phishing and social engineering at scale. Multi-vector, simultaneous attacks. Deepfakes causing real financial losses. “Harvest now, decrypt later” nation-state threats.
Inside-out: your own AI without governance
Shadow AI: tools adopted faster than controls. Sensitive data exposed via prompts and outputs. AI agents acting without human checkpoints. Vibe coding: apps built without IT or InfoSec review.
Regulatory & compliance exposure
EU AI Act: fines up to €35m or 7% of global turnover. DORA: operational resilience mandates. NIS2: governance obligations. UK Cyber Security & Resilience Bill.

A proven framework that’s practical by design
As cybersecurity threats grow more sophisticated and regulators tighten their grip, the gap between using AI and governing it safely becomes your biggest business risk. Quod Orbis delivers expert AI governance consulting to close that gap; pragmatically, permanently and with evidence to prove it.
We work with your leadership team to define what AI is permitted, what is prohibited and how risk is assessed. This includes your AI acceptable use policy, risk appetite statement and a governance charter that is board-approved and audit-ready.
We build and implement your governed register of approved AI tools and use cases — including discovery of shadow AI already in use. Every tool is assessed, risk-rated and assigned a business owner before it is approved for use.
We design and implement the technical controls that govern how AI is used in your environment — data loss prevention on prompts and outputs, API gateways, private LLM configurations, least privilege access and agentic AI approval thresholds.
We establish the governance structures your organisation needs — an AI risk committee, named executive accountability, clear escalation paths and a regular review cadence. Board confidence comes from structure, not just policy.
We build the human side of governance — role-based AI risk training, awareness campaigns and clear guidance your people actually use. Policy only works if your workforce understands it, believes in it and applies it day to day.

06 Continuous assurance ★
The hardest part of AI governance is proving it is working continuously — not just at the point of implementation. Pillar 05 is where most frameworks fall down. It is also where Quod Orbis is uniquely placed to help.
The Difference
Who delivers it?
Every Quod Orbis engagement is led by a senior consultant with a minimum of 10 years’ cybersecurity and compliance experience. Our team includes former CISOs, compliance directors and regulatory specialists across financial services, manufacturing, healthcare and the public sector.
The Difference
Every organisation faces a different combination of AI risks. Our consulting approach is tailored to your specific risk environment, whether that is Shadow AI proliferating across your business, agentic AI acting without oversight or regulatory obligations that are tightening faster than your controls.
