Network Layer
Implement: TLS 1.3 for all AI traffic, VPN or private link for on-prem connections, network segmentation between AI and production systems, DDoS protection for AI endpoints, and egress filtering for AI model calls.
Application Layer
Deploy: AI safety layer (guardrails, DLP, PII redaction), input validation and sanitization, output screening and verification, rate limiting per user and department, and anomaly detection for unusual usage patterns.
Data Layer
Ensure: zero-history architecture for conversation data, encryption at rest for knowledge bases, data classification and tagging, access controls on uploaded documents, and automatic PII detection across all data flows.
Identity Layer
Implement: SSO via SAML/OIDC, MFA enforcement, RBAC with three tiers (admin, department head, user), session management with automatic timeouts, and API key rotation for programmatic access.
