Nightfall Launches Firewall for AI to Secure GPT-4o
May 22 2024 - 9:00AM
Nightfall AI, the leading enterprise data leak prevention (DLP)
platform for SaaS, generative AI (GenAI), email and endpoints,
today announced the release of Firewall for AI to safeguard
organizations’ GenAI-based applications and data pipelines that
leverage GPT-4o and other large language models (LLMs).
According to OWASP, sensitive data exposure and prompt injection
are two of the greatest risks to companies that self-host public
LLMs like GPT-4o and Llama or that leverage public GenAI services
from OpenAI and Google. Nightfall’s Firewall for AI addresses these
concerns by providing a comprehensive set of security, operational
and content guardrails for AI models and applications.
“OpenAI’s GPT-4o and Google’s Project Astra announcements
represent major advancements in LLMs. But one thing should be
getting more attention: the risks they create for sensitive data
exposure, prompt injection attacks and model abuse,” said Isaac
Madan, CEO of Nightfall AI. “Our Firewall for AI empowers
businesses to confidently deploy GenAI applications using the
latest models while maintaining the highest standards of data
protection and content integrity.”
Firewall for AI Features
Nightfall’s Firewall for AI acts as a client wrapper that
protects company and customer interactions with GenAI-based
applications and data pipelines. It prevents sensitive data
exposure to LLMs by scanning automation workflows and data
pipelines and removing sensitive PII, PCI, PHI and secrets to
ensure compliance with leading standards like GDPR, CCPA and more.
Firewall for AI also protects against attacks (such as prompt
injection) by detecting malicious content and ensuring appropriate
language use, code use, response relevancy and sentiment analysis.
Simultaneously, Firewall for AI maintains data quality by
extracting proprietary, malicious, toxic and irrelevant content
from datasets.
“Multimodal AI models introduce new risks to organizations that
build and implement GenAI applications,” said Rohan Sathe, CTO of
Nightfall AI. “Traditional security solutions can’t detect
sensitive data in images, video and audio due to their reliance on
simplistic regexes, heuristics and inability to process and scan
multimedia. Our Firewall for AI leverages our AI-native,
enterprise-grade detection engine and fine-tuned DLP models to
deliver unmatched accuracy, throughput and response times across
inputs.”
Nightfall’s Firewall for AI seamlessly integrates into existing
workflows through APIs and SDKs, empowering customers to
continuously monitor their AI interactions and automatically detect
and mitigate potential risks in real time, even with the latest AI
models.
The Nightfall DLP platform as a whole offers a comprehensive
suite of features, including out-of-the-box policies, context-rich
alerting and reporting, automated remediation workflows and an
intuitive dashboard, all of which provide organizations with
unparalleled visibility and granular control over their GenAI
stack. This helps businesses focus on innovating and enhancing
their customer experience, knowing that state-of-the-art security
measures protect their GenAI applications every step of the
way.
