Cato AI-Firewall protects homegrown AI applications and agents from runtime attacks before they can impact users, systems, or data. Delivered through Cato’s converged, cloud-native architecture, it defends against the full range of AI runtime threats with low latency and a consistently low false-positive rate.
Cato AI-FW analyzes all AI interactions in real time to detect and block known and unknown threats targeting LLMs, agents, and AI-powered applications. Its broad coverage includes evasive attacks designed to bypass standard controls, ensuring organizations stay ahead of emerging adversarial techniques.
AI-FW guardrails prevent risky or non-compliant AI behavior, aligning runtime activity with leading frameworks such as the EU AI Act, NIST RMF, MITRE ATLAS, and OWASP Top 10 for LLMs. This enables governance teams to operationalize compliance with confidence and consistency.
With an API-first approach, AI-FW secures AI applications throughout their lifecycle. Security, AI, and governance teams can integrate protection into CI/CD pipelines, development workflows, and production systems-ensuring scalable runtime protection across large or distributed AI deployments.
AI-FW supports leading agentic AI development frameworks, providing deep observability and runtime protection for agent-driven applications. This ensures autonomous workflows remain secure, predictable, and aligned with enterprise policy.
AI-FW adapts to any architecture with lightweight, enterprise-ready deployment options. Integrate through a model-agnostic AI gateway to apply consistent guardrails across all LLM traffic. Enable inline protection with a simple one-line configuration through supported AI gateways. Use the out-of-band Detection API when asynchronous analysis is required. And for environments with strict latency or data-residency needs, deploy on-prem to keep AI interactions local while still enforcing full runtime protection.
Customers use Cato to eliminate complex legacy architectures comprised of multiple security point solutions and costly network services. Cato’s unique SASE platform consistently and autonomously delivers secure and optimized application access everywhere and to everyone.
