Speed matters in the AI race, but so does safety. At Endava, we believe enterprise readiness starts with trust. That’s why every Agentspace solution is designed with legal, ethical and security foundations built in from day one.
Legal by design: responsibility embedded from the ground up
Charlotte Tanner, Legal Counsel – AI, IP and Cybersecurity
Agentspace unlocks the full potential of enterprise AI, but power must be paired with accountability. That’s why we embed legal and ethical rigour into every solution from the start. We innovate fast, but never at the expense of trust.
Here’s how we deliver:
- Responsible data governance
We define and implement clear policies around data access, use and purpose. Every agent operates on least privilege principles, accessing only what it needs to function.
- Sensitive data protection
Tailored DLP (data loss prevention) strategies reduce the risk of exposure in AI interactions, protecting sensitive data throughout every agent exchange.
- Intellectual property clarity
Ownership and usage rights can be murky in the AI space. We address them up front, clarifying training data usage, third-party integrations and output rights to reduce IP risk.
- Built-in regulatory alignment
From GDPR to the EU AI Act, we incorporate regulatory requirements early in development. Our teams are equipped to interpret and implement compliance across sectors and geographies.
- Ethical controls
Audit logs, transparency mechanisms and human override options are part of every agent’s design, ensuring human judgement can intervene whenever needed.
- Clarity in contracts and roles
We don’t leave legal responsibilities to chance. Every partnership begins with a shared understanding of roles, ownership and risk.
This approach gives our clients more than just confidence; it delivers operational clarity and long-term resilience.
Secure by design: building AI on solid ground
Sven Wagner, Head of Cyber Security Operations
Security is not a feature. It’s a foundation. From development to deployment, our AI agents are secured through a layered, proactive approach.
Our key practices:
- AI-focused secure development lifecycle (SDLC)
Our SDLC is tailored for AI, covering secure code reviews, vulnerability testing and targeted risk assessments.
- Context-aware threat modelling
Before launch, we assess each solution against real-world threat scenarios to design appropriate safeguards.
- Strict identity and access management (IAM)
We enforce least privilege principles across users and agents, ensuring minimal exposure at all times.
- Continuous monitoring
We don’t just secure at launch. Our monitoring evolves alongside your AI, detecting anomalies and adapting to emerging threats.
Together, these layers create not just protection, but peace of mind, so AI can scale without compromise.
A trusted foundation for scalable AI
When legal, ethical and security principles guide every decision, AI becomes more than a tool. It becomes a trusted driver of business transformation. That’s the Endava standard. And it’s why Agentspace is built for today’s needs and tomorrow’s possibilities.
