Introducing Bastio: Enterprise AI Security Platform
Learn how Bastio protects your AI applications from malicious users with real-time threat detection and PII protection.

Introducing Bastio: Enterprise AI Security Platform
Today we're excited to announce Bastio, an enterprise-grade security platform built specifically for protecting AI applications from malicious end-users. As organizations rapidly adopt Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI-powered features, new security challenges emerge that traditional security tools weren't designed to handle.
The AI Security Challenge
AI applications face unique security threats that differ fundamentally from traditional web security:
- Prompt Injection Attacks: Malicious users manipulating AI behavior through crafted inputs
- Data Leakage: Sensitive information exposure through model responses
- Bot Attacks: Automated abuse of AI endpoints leading to cost overruns
- Jailbreak Attempts: Bypassing safety guardrails and content policies
- PII Exposure: Personally identifiable information leaking through conversations
Traditional security tools like WAFs and API gateways don't understand the semantic nature of LLM attacks, leaving your AI applications vulnerable.
How Bastio Works
Bastio sits between your application and AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.) to provide comprehensive security layers:
Real-Time Threat Detection
- Pattern Matching: Advanced algorithms detect malicious patterns in real-time
- Bot Detection: Identify automated abuse through behavioral analysis
- Anomaly Detection: Machine learning models spot unusual usage patterns
- PII Detection: Automatically identify 14+ types of sensitive data
Proactive Prevention
- Rate Limiting: Smart throttling based on user risk profiles
- Content Filtering: Block harmful or inappropriate content
- Geolocation Controls: Restrict access by IP intelligence
- Threat Lists: Real-time blocking using curated threat databases
Automated Response
- Auto-Quarantine: Automatically isolate high-risk users
- Alert System: Real-time notifications for security teams
- Audit Trails: Comprehensive logging for compliance
- Policy Enforcement: Customizable security rules
Key Features
🛡️ Multi-Layer Protection
Bastio provides defense in depth with multiple security layers working together:
- Pre-Processing Security: Analyze requests before they reach your LLM
- In-Flight Monitoring: Track streaming responses in real-time
- Post-Processing Analysis: Inspect and filter LLM outputs
- Continuous Learning: Adapt to new threat patterns automatically
⚡ Performance First
Security shouldn't slow down your application:
- < 10ms Latency: Minimal overhead for security checks
- Streaming Support: Full support for SSE and streaming responses
- 99.99% Uptime: Enterprise-grade reliability
📊 Comprehensive Analytics
Understand your security posture with detailed insights:
- Real-time threat dashboard
- User risk scoring and profiling
- Detailed audit logs and compliance reports
- Custom alerting and integrations
OpenAI-Compatible API
Integrating Bastio takes minutes, not weeks. Our OpenAI-compatible API means you can add enterprise security with minimal code changes:
// Before
const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
  model: "gpt-4",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
});
// After - just change the baseURL
const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
  model: "gpt-4",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello!" }],
  baseURL: "https://api.bastio.com/v1",
});Works with all major AI providers: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Mistral AI, and more.
