AI + ERP Security
You're giving AI access to your most sensitive business data. Who's checking the security?
SAP Joule. Microsoft Copilot. Oracle AI Agents. Custom LLMs. Every AI integration into your ERP creates a new identity, a new access path, and a new attack surface. This is the fastest-emerging risk in enterprise security — and almost nobody is managing it yet.

Why AI + ERP is the security gap organisations aren't ready for
Overprivileged AI access
AI tools connecting to your ERP often receive broad access to function effectively. SAP Joule needs to read data across modules. Copilot connects to your Dynamics data. Is that access governed by least-privilege? Is it reviewed? In most deployments we've seen — it isn't.
Data exposure through AI
When an AI model is trained on your ERP data or given retrieval access to it, that data can surface in unexpected ways — in AI responses to other users, in model weights, in logs sent to vendor infrastructure. The data exposure surface of an AI-connected ERP is significantly larger than most organisations realise.
Prompt injection & manipulation
An attacker who can influence the input to an AI system connected to your ERP may be able to cause the AI to take unintended actions — approving transactions, extracting data, or escalating access. This is a novel attack vector with no established defence playbook. We help you build one.
