    About the foundation

    Advancing AI for a safer future.

    “Founded on the belief that technology should serve human judgment.”

    The HARIS Foundation

    In collaboration with the ASIS International – Dhahran Chapter, the HARIS Foundation — Humanized Artificial Reasoning & Intelligent Security — is a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming the way humanity understands, anticipates, and resolves complex security challenges.

    The Foundation pioneers the integration of artificial reasoning, data intelligence, and ethical governance to strengthen decision-making in public safety, national resilience, and digital transformation.

    Through its AI-powered platform, HARIS provides actionable insight into threats spanning physical, cyber, and socio-technical domains — empowering organizations and communities to act with clarity, speed, and integrity.

    Principles

    What we hold to.

    Human judgment first

    HARIS advises. People decide. Every recommendation arrives with its reasoning exposed.

    Ethics by design

    Governance is built into the system, not bolted on after deployment.

    Interoperable by default

    We integrate with the systems you already run rather than demanding you replace them.

    Non-profit purpose

    Advancement of the profession is the objective. The work is measured by that, not by revenue.

    Alignment

    Built against recognized standards.

    Platform

    What HARIS does, in detail.

    Three capabilities, one reasoning engine. Each is designed to amplify the expertise already in your organization rather than substitute for it.

    Advisory

    AI-powered security consultation

    HARIS elevates the quality of a security conversation and helps resolve complex situations. It listens actively, summarizes the key points, and reflects on the solutions on the table — offering clear insight on subjects such as artificial intelligence, cloud technologies, and public safety.

    It does not replace human expertise; it amplifies it, so organizations can make informed decisions quickly and defensibly. Used in professional forums, HARIS ensures every voice is heard and every discussion stays productive.

    Talk to HARIS
    Operations

    Intelligent security advising

    A sophisticated, AI-driven approach to strengthening security operations. HARIS acts as a digital partner, producing recommendations from real-time data analysis and emerging trends across the security landscape.

    By integrating with your existing systems, it helps identify vulnerabilities, streamline process, and raise the floor on overall safety — keeping teams ahead of threats rather than reacting to them.

    Explore assessment tools
    Foresight

    Autonomous systems insight

    Comprehensive analysis of the evolving landscape of autonomous systems and their application across industries — how these technologies affect efficiency, safety, and innovation in practice.

    The focus stays on real deployment and on the ethical considerations that come with it, so leaders can make informed decisions about integrating autonomous solutions into their operations.

    Method

    Four stages, always inspectable.

    STAGE 01

    Listen

    Ingest the live picture: briefings, sensor and system feeds, incident history, and the discussion in the room.

    STAGE 02

    Analyze

    Separate signal from noise. Cross-reference against threat patterns, regulatory obligation, and prior precedent.

    STAGE 03

    Model

    Run the scenario forward. Where does this go in an hour, a day, a quarter — and what changes the outcome?

    STAGE 04

    Advise

    Return a recommendation with its reasoning attached, ranked by consequence. The decision stays with the human.

    Questions

    Your questions, answered.

    What is HARIS, and how does it work?

    HARIS — Humanized Artificial Reasoning & Intelligent Security — is an AI-driven security assistant built for professional forums and security operations. It works as a co-moderator, advisor, and digital partner: listening to discussion, analyzing it against threat patterns and precedent, modelling how a situation could unfold, and returning a recommendation with its reasoning attached.

    How can HARIS improve my organization's security operations?

    HARIS acts as a digital partner that listens and analyzes continuously. It summarizes complex discussion, surfaces the vulnerability worth closing first, and gives teams the context to make informed decisions quickly — so security leaders spend their time deciding rather than assembling the picture.

    Is HARIS suitable for all types of organizations?

    Yes. HARIS is designed for a wide range of organizations, from smaller businesses through to large enterprises and government bodies. Its reasoning layer is adaptable to specific security needs and operational constraints, whether the focus is public safety, critical infrastructure, cyber resilience, or corporate risk governance.

    Does HARIS replace security professionals?

    No — and that is a design decision, not a limitation. HARIS amplifies human expertise. Every recommendation arrives with its reasoning exposed so a professional can interrogate it, and the decision always remains with the human in the room.

    Is the HARIS Foundation a commercial company?

    The HARIS Foundation is a non-profit initiative, operating in collaboration with the ASIS International – Dhahran Chapter. Its purpose is advancing the security profession and supporting the Kingdom's resilience objectives under Vision 2030.

    What standards does HARIS align to?

    Frameworks developed and applied by the HARIS team align with SAIS, Ministry of Interior requirements, ASIS International standards, and relevant ISO standards.

        Privacy

        How HARIS handles your data.

        What we hold, what we deliberately do not hold, and what leaves the Kingdom.

        Draft — pending legal review. Not yet in force.

        Who is responsible

        The HARIS Foundation is the controller of the personal data described here. For anything in this notice, write to info@harisagent.ai.

        What we collect

        Only what a specific purpose needs:

        • If you create an account — your name, organization, role, country, mobile number and email address.
        • If you contact us — whatever you put in the form or the email, including your phone number if you give it.
        • If you speak to the avatar — your voice, for the duration of the conversation. See transfers below, because this one leaves the Kingdom.

        What we deliberately do not collect

        Assessments stay on your device. Everything you enter into the assessment toolkit — asset registers, vulnerabilities, adversary profiles, scores — is held in your own browser and is never transmitted to us. We hold no copy and could not produce one if asked. Saving downloads a file to your computer; clearing your browser data erases the work.

        Why we hold it

        Account details let us give you access to the tools and tell you when something material changes. Contact details let us answer you. We do not sell personal data, and we do not use it for advertising.

        What leaves the Kingdom

        Being plain about this matters more than sounding reassuring:

        • The live avatar is operated by a provider outside Saudi Arabia. If you speak to it, your voice is processed on their servers abroad. If you would rather that did not happen, do not start a conversation — every other part of the site works without it.
        • Website hosting is currently served from outside the Kingdom. The site itself carries no personal data.

        Where a transfer outside the Kingdom is required, we will carry it out only on a basis permitted by the Personal Data Protection Law and its transfer regulations.

        How long we keep it

        Account details for as long as the account exists, and for a limited period afterwards where a legal obligation requires it. Correspondence for as long as it is useful to the matter it concerns. Delete your account and the profile record goes with it.

        Your rights

        Under the Personal Data Protection Law you may ask us to confirm what we hold about you, give you a copy, correct it, or delete it. You may withdraw consent at any time where consent is what we relied on. Write to info@harisagent.ai and we will respond within the period the law allows.

        If you are not satisfied with how we have handled a request, you may complain to the Saudi Data & AI Authority.

        Security

        Sign-in is handled by a dedicated authentication service; we never see or store your password. Account records are readable only by the account holder. No system is perfect, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise.

        Other HARIS services

        Some HARIS tools run on separate platforms under their own arrangements, including the CCTV field-of-view study. Those services handle uploads and accounts under terms of their own, and this notice does not describe them. Read the notice published on each service before uploading anything sensitive to it.

        Changes

        If this notice changes in a way that affects you, we will say so on this page and date it.

        Terms

        Terms of use.

        What the tools are, what they are not, and the limits of what may be relied upon.

        Draft — pending legal review. Not yet in force.

        Advice, not decisions

        HARIS advises; people decide. Every output — an assessment, a rating, a recommendation, an answer from the avatar — is indicative and requires verification by a qualified security professional and, where it applies, by the relevant regulatory authority. Nothing produced here is a final security assessment or a substitute for professional judgment.

        Use of the tools

        The tools are offered for legitimate professional security work. Do not use them to plan or assist anything unlawful, and do not attempt to disrupt the service or reach data that is not yours. We may withdraw access where that happens.

        Your material

        What you enter into the assessment toolkit stays on your device and remains yours; we claim nothing in it. You are responsible for handling exported files with the sensitivity they deserve, and for the lawful basis on which you hold information about other people.

        Availability

        The tools are provided as they are. We do not promise uninterrupted availability, and features that depend on third parties may change or stop.

        Liability

        To the extent the law allows, the HARIS Foundation is not liable for loss or damage arising from reliance on any output of these tools. This does not limit anything that cannot lawfully be limited.

        Governing law

        These terms are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
