runtime ai security guardrails

Find Guardrails that watch your AI and its actions in production

Monitor, score, alert and root-cause analysis of AI misbehavior in real time.

The runtime guardrail pipeline The runtime guardrail pipeline User input flows to an input guardrail check, then the AI model, then an output guardrail check, then back to the user. Beneath the flow, a monitoring bar shows four icons: Monitor, Risk score, Alert, Alerts.

Overview

Pre-release testing tells you how your AI behaved in the lab

Runtime guardrails tell you how it behaves with real users, real data and real attackers and let you control it.

Hexashield AI monitors live AI applications, scores their risk in real time, alerts security teams as they happen and traces misbehavior back to its root cause. What it learns at runtime feeds straight back into continuous red teaming, closing the loop between testing and production.

The Challenge

Every conversation is a potential attack

Once AI is live, every conversation is a potential attack and every response is a potential exposure. Most security teams have no view of what their AI is actually receiving and returning.

Live traffic includes adversarial inputs that were never seen in testing.

AI can leak sensitive data or produce misleading output in production.

Security teams lack visibility into AI inputs and outputs.

Without root-cause analysis, the same AI incident keeps happening.

What Cygeniq Delivers

Five capabilities, watching AI in production

Guardrail policy engineering

Define and tune the policies that govern what your AI may accept and return, aligned to your business and compliance needs.

Runtime monitoring

Continuous visibility into the inputs and outputs of production AI applications.

Runtime vulnerability risk scoring

A live risk score for each AI application, so teams can see which ones are trending riskier.

Runtime alerting and real-time threat detection

Security teams receive alerts about risky behavior and threats as they happen.

Root-cause analysis of AI misbehavior

Understand why the AI misbehaved, identify the underlying cause, and feed the findings into the next red-team cycle.

How It Works

Six steps from policy to retest

011

Define guardrail policies

Set the rules for acceptable inputs and outputs for each AI application.

022

Monitor live traffic

Hexashield watches production AI interactions continuously.

033

Score risk in real time

Each application carries a live risk score that updates as behavior changes.

044

Alerts

Risky behavior triggers alerts and security teams are alerted to threats in real time.

055

Investigate the root cause

Trace misbehavior back to why it happened.

066

Tune and retest

Update guardrails and validate them through continuous red teaming.

Quick Example

A clinical documentation assistant

Illustrative example - scenario
Situation

A healthcare organization uses an AI assistant to help clinicians draft clinical documentation. It is live and used daily.

What Cygeniq does

Runtime monitoring spots responses containing inaccurate clinical information, and separately an attempt to extract patient details. The application's risk score rises, an alert fires and the extraction attempt is alerted in real time.

Result

Root-cause analysis shows the guardrail policy did not cover a particular retrieval pattern. The team updates the policy, Hexashield red teaming retests it, and the risk score returns to normal.

Outcomes

Live, not stale

Threats stopped live

Risky AI behavior is caught and alerted in production, not discovered after the fact.

A live risk score

Every AI application carries a current, comparable risk score.

Fewer repeat incidents

Root-cause analysis fixes the cause, not just the symptom.

A closed loop

Runtime findings strengthen every red-team cycle.
