Introducing Lakera Guard – Bringing Enterprise-Grade Security to LLMs with One Line of Code

Lakera has introduced Lakera Guard, a developer-first API designed to provide enterprise-grade security to applications utilizing Large Language Models (LLMs), addressing new security challenges such as prompt injection, sensitive information leakage, and hallucinations. This API acts as a protective shield, ensuring any communication in and out of an LLM passes through its security checks, akin to a network firewall, and can be integrated into existing application stacks with minimal effort. Lakera Guard delivers out-of-the-box protection and continuously evolves its security intelligence by drawing from public sources, community data, and the latest research, with its proprietary vulnerability database expanding rapidly. Currently in private beta with limited access, Lakera Guard allows developers to maintain control over application flow and enhances security by providing detailed JSON findings and enabling customizable security responses to identified threats, ensuring safe and secure LLM operations for organizations worldwide.
