The option terseinits does that for you. terseinits is a meta-option that essentially executes the following definitions
renewrobustcmd*bibinitperiod
renewrobustcmd*bibinitdelim
renewrobustcmd*bibinithyphendelim
and sets the test ifterseinits (that test is not used by a lot of styles, apparently, so it hardly matters).
If you want a more fine-grained control, you can redefine these macros yourself. They do pretty much what their names suggest: bibinitperiod is the punctuation after a name initial, bibinitdelim the space between two name initials and bibinithyphendelim replaces the two between hyphenated name parts such as Jean-Jacques.

Note that I changed the deprecated last-first to the new family-given, since you are already using the new name giveninits (cf. Biblatex 3.3 name formatting).
If you are using authoryear, you may want to redefine sortname and not only author:
