Nexus Guard is a five-layer compliance audit covering Singapore's PDPA, IMDA governance frameworks, MAS guidelines, and the EU AI Act. We assess your entire digital presence for AI-related regulatory exposure — and deliver a DEFCON-scored liability report with a full remediation roadmap.
AI-related obligations in Singapore are now enforced through PDPA and sector-specific rules. PDPC fines are regular, the EU AI Act's transparency obligations reach any Singapore company with EU users or data subjects, and IMDA and MAS frameworks are increasingly referenced by regulators and in enforcement reasoning. At the same time:
"Compliance isn't a line item you cut. It's the line between operating and not operating."
Nexus Guard closes this gap: a single comprehensive audit that maps your entire AI-related regulatory exposure, scores it against current enforcement standards, and gives you a concrete plan to fix it.
Each layer covers a distinct category of regulatory exposure. Together, they map your complete AI governance posture — from data protection to deepfake vulnerability.
We analyse whether your website is protected against AI data harvesting. Most businesses have no idea that OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, and others are actively crawling their content to train foundation models — often without consent.
When your website doesn't provide clear information, AI doesn't stay silent — it guesses. We identify every information gap that creates fabrication risk, from missing pricing to unclear corporate structure, and map them to the specific hallucinations they produce.
The EU AI Act requires chatbots to disclose they are AI. The PDPA requires disclosure of automated decision-making. We check every customer-facing AI touchpoint for compliance — and assess your exposure if you serve EU customers from Singapore.
This is the heaviest-weighted layer because PDPA carries the most immediate enforcement risk. We audit your entire data collection apparatus — from cookie consent to breach notification readiness — against current PDPC enforcement standards, not just the letter of the law.
Technical security underpins every other layer. A data protection policy means nothing if the underlying infrastructure is compromised. We check the visible security posture of your web presence — including indicators of prior breaches.
Every audit produces a weighted liability score from 0-100, mapped to a DEFCON level. The score accounts for the relative severity of different compliance categories — PDPA carries the most weight because it carries the most enforcement risk.
For companies serving EU customers, an additional EU AI Act Readiness dimension (15%) is applied across Consumer Transparency and Data Protection layers, adjusting the weights accordingly. This isn't a separate layer — it's a cross-cutting regulatory lens.
Certain findings are so severe that they trigger an automatic DEFCON 1 classification regardless of the overall score.
| Category | Weight |
|---|---|
| Data Protection (PDPA) | 25% |
| AI Training Protection | 15% |
| Hallucination Liability | 15% |
| Consumer Transparency | 15% |
| Technical Security | 15% |
| EU AI Act Readiness (cross-cutting, if applicable) | 15% |
Any one of these findings immediately classifies the audit as DEFCON 1 — Critical, regardless of the numerical score.
Compliance auditing isn't something you automate and forget. Nexus Guard is a structured, analyst-led engagement that combines automated scanning with human review, regulatory interpretation, and hands-on remediation. The two-week timeline exists because thoroughness protects you — shortcuts don't.
Every Nexus Guard engagement produces a comprehensive, regulation-cited report designed to be handed directly to your board, your legal counsel, or your regulator. Not a dashboard. Not a score with no context. A document that explains what's wrong, why it matters, what it could cost, and exactly how to fix it.
Nexus Guard is designed for organisations where compliance isn't optional — where fines, enforcement actions, and regulatory scrutiny are part of the operating environment.

MAS-regulated entities are expected to meet AI risk management guidelines issued December 2024. Nexus Guard maps your exposure against these guidelines specifically.
Sensitive patient data, YMYL content, and AI hallucination risk make healthcare providers uniquely exposed. When AI fabricates a doctor, the liability is yours.
If you sell to EU customers, Article 50 applies to you. Content labelling, chatbot disclosure, and cross-border data transfers — all within scope.
Children's data protections, AI-generated content policies, and the accuracy of information presented to students and parents create overlapping compliance requirements.
Accountants, consultants, and advisory firms handle sensitive client data. A breach notification failure or inadequate consent mechanism puts your licence at risk.
Every business we've audited has had at least one finding they didn't know existed. Most have had several. The question isn't whether you have exposure — it's how much.
