AI Security & guardrails

Enterprise-Grade
AI Security & Guardrails for Every AI Interaction

A dedicated security layer that filters content, detects PII, enforces policies, and prevents data loss — before any prompt reaches an external provider. Real-time protection, compliance-ready audit trails.

Sound Familiar?

Every Prompt Is a Potential Data Leak

Without a dedicated security layer, your AI usage is a compliance incident waiting to happen

👤

PII Pasted Into Prompts

Employees unknowingly paste customer names, social security numbers, credit card details, and health records directly into LLM prompts every day.

👁

No Content Filtering

Prompts and responses flow without any scanning. Harmful, biased, or off-policy content reaches users unchecked — and there's no record of what was generated.

💻

Proprietary Code Leaking

Developers paste internal codebases, architecture diagrams, and trade secrets into external models for help. Once sent, that data is gone.

📜

No Enforceable AI Policies

Your AI usage policy exists as a PDF nobody reads. There's no technical mechanism to enforce which data goes where, or which models are approved.

🔍

Zero Audit Trail

When regulators ask "what AI decisions were made and with what data?" — you have no answer. Every interaction is invisible to compliance teams.

Violations Discovered Too Late

Data breaches and policy violations are found after the damage is done — in quarterly audits, incident reports, or worse, in the press.

How It Works

A Security Layer That Intercepts Before It's Too Late

Every prompt and response passes through Optscale AI's guardrails — scanned, filtered, and logged in real time.

Inspect every AI interaction at the gateway level, before data leaves your perimeter

The Security & Guardrails layer sits inside the Optscale AI Gateway. Before any prompt reaches an external model, it's scanned for PII, checked against your content policies, and validated for data sensitivity. Responses are filtered on the way back. Every interaction generates a compliance-ready audit record.

🛡 Real-time content filtering for both prompts and model responses

👤 Automatic PII detection and redaction before data reaches external providers

📜 Policy enforcement engine — define what data goes where, per team

🔔 Real-time violation alerting with configurable escalation rules

  • "Pull the account summary for John Smith, SSN 482-91-0037 and forecast Q4 revenue from the internal_financials_v3 dataset."

🛡 Optscale AI Security Layer

PII Detection • Content Filter • Policy Check • DLP Scan

  • ✗ PII detected

  • ✗ Internal dataset ref

  • ✓ Content policy OK

  • ✓ Model approved

redacted & sanitized

  • "Pull the account summary for [REDACTED] and forecast Q4 revenue from the [INTERNAL_REF_REMOVED]dataset."

Capabilities

Four Layers of Protection

Each layer works in real time at the gateway level — no code changes, no SDK integrations, no workflow disruption.

👁

Content Filtering

Configurable filters that scan both prompts and responses for inappropriate, harmful, or off-policy content in real time — before users ever see it.

✓ Bi-directional scanning of prompts and responses

✓ Custom policy rules per team or department

✓ Toxicity, bias, and off-topic detection

✓ Block, flag, or log-only enforcement modes

👤

PII Detection & Redaction

Automatically identifies and redacts personally identifiable information — names, SSNs, credit cards, health records — before it reaches any external model provider.

✓ 50+ PII entity types recognized

✓ Auto-redact or block with configurable thresholds

✓ Reversible tokenization for internal use

✓ GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS aware patterns

📜

Policy Enforcement

Define company-wide AI usage policies — which data goes where, which models are approved, and what outputs are acceptable. Enforce them automatically at the gateway.

✓ Declarative YAML-based policy definitions

✓ Model allowlists and blocklists per team

✓ Data classification-based routing rules

✓ Versioned policies with rollback support

🚫

Data Loss Prevention

Prevents sensitive corporate data, trade secrets, and proprietary code from leaking to external LLMs through real-time prompt monitoring and pattern matching.

✓ Source code and IP detection in prompts

✓ Financial data and projection recognition

✓ Internal document and dataset reference blocking

✓ Custom regex and keyword pattern rules

Configuration

Policies as Code, Enforced in Real Time

Define your security guardrails in simple YAML. Optscale AI enforces them at the gateway level — no SDK changes required. Policies are versioned, auditable, and can be scoped per team, per model, or company-wide.
