Lakera Guard

Lakera Guard is a developer-first AI security platform designed to protect large language model (LLM) applications across enterprises with low-latency, real-time threat detection and content moderation. The platform secures LLM applications against critical risks including prompt injection attacks (both direct and indirect), data leakage when models are connected to personally identifiable information or corporate data, insecure output handling, jailbreaks, and hallucinations. Lakera Guard integrates via a simple API that works with any LLM including OpenAI GPT, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, Meta Llama, and custom models.

The platform provides practical defenses against sophisticated prompt injection techniques that attempt to override system instructions or trigger unintended downstream actions. Lakera Guard detects and prevents leakage of sensitive information by monitoring model inputs and outputs for PII, confidential data, and proprietary information that should remain protected. The system identifies hallucinations where model outputs contradict input context or contain factually incorrect information based on reference knowledge, helping maintain accuracy and reliability in production applications.

Lakera Guard includes specialized content moderation capabilities with dedicated detectors for hate speech, sexual content, violence, and profanities. These detectors are calibrated for different use cases from public-facing chatbots to internal productivity tools, with customizable thresholds and policies. The platform uses proprietary AI models that continuously learn from large-scale generative AI interactions, improving detection accuracy as the threat landscape evolves. This AI-first approach enables Lakera Guard to identify novel attack patterns and emerging threats in real-time.

Organizations can customize security policies to fit their specific compliance requirements, risk tolerance, and use cases without changing application code. The platform provides centralized observability through dashboards that show GenAI interactions, detected threats, policy violations, and user activity patterns. Lakera Guard meets enterprise security and compliance requirements with SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and NIST certifications. The solution supports audit trails, detailed logging, and compliance reporting for regulated industries.

Lakera Guard is trusted by major technology companies, financial institutions, and enterprises deploying generative AI at scale. The platform integrates with existing analytics, monitoring, and security infrastructure including Grafana, Splunk, and SIEM platforms. Dropbox uses Lakera Guard to safeguard LLM-powered applications, secure user data, and maintain reliability of intelligent features. The platform enables organizations to deploy generative AI applications confidently while maintaining security, compliance, and trust.
