Security Gap

Features N8N's native guardrails don't have.

N8N's Guardrails node uses LLM-based detection at 300-800ms per check. Bastio uses pattern-based detection at <15ms with bot detection, IP reputation, user fingerprinting, and deterministic blocking that never lets the same attack pass on retry.
