AI Security for Apps is now generally available

Cloudflare has launched AI Security for Apps, a service designed to detect and mitigate threats to AI-powered applications, now generally available to all its customers, including those on Free, Pro, and Business plans. This service features AI endpoint discovery, which is free for all users, and includes capabilities like detection for custom topics and prompt injection threats. Cloudflare is collaborating with IBM to offer this security to IBM's cloud customers and partnering with Wiz for a unified AI security overview. The AI Security for Apps operates by identifying AI endpoints across web properties, detecting malicious activities, and mitigating threats using Cloudflare's WAF rule builder. It supports discovery of endpoints regardless of hosting, using behavior-based detection rather than path matching, and includes custom prompt extraction and mitigation options. The service aims to provide a comprehensive security layer integrating AI-specific data with Cloudflare's broader security platform, offering enhanced protection against complex threat patterns.
