APIRE is a next-generation AI security platform tailored for enterprise needs. It safeguards AI applications against threats including prompt injection, jailbreaking, and model inversion attacks through a five-layer defense system. With 100% compatibility with OpenAI APIs, APIRE ensures seamless integration and robust protection for your AI-driven processes.

APIRE functions as a transparent reverse proxy, securing every AI interaction with its Five-Layer Defense System — Sentinel gateway (Layer 0) plus four detection shields. By changing a single API endpoint URL, APIRE intercepts all requests, applies real-time threat detection, data masking, and policy enforcement, then delivers compliance-ready audit logs for NIS2, EU AI Act, GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS.

Traditional security tools cannot detect AI-specific threats like prompt injection attacks, jailbreaking attempts, or model inversion. These attacks exploit the conversational nature of LLMs — something firewalls and DLP tools were never designed for. APIRE was built from the ground up for the AI API threat landscape.

Yes. APIRE maintains 100% compatibility with OpenAI APIs and SDKs. No code changes, no integration complexity — just change one endpoint URL. APIRE supports 15+ cloud AI providers plus local LLMs via Ollama, LM Studio, and Jan.ai.

APIRE is engineered to help enterprises meet compliance requirements across multiple frameworks. The four detection layers map directly to EU AI Act Articles 10, 14, 15, and 52. Zero-retention architecture eliminates stored data liability for GDPR. 950+ DLP rules provide HIPAA and PCI-DSS alignment out of the box.

APIRE protects: PII (names, emails, phone numbers, addresses, SSNs), PHI (medical records, patient data), Financial data (credit cards, bank accounts, PCI data), API keys and credentials, Company confidential information, and Custom data types you define with the visual rule builder.

No. APIRE offers zero-touch deployment. Change a single API endpoint URL in your application configuration. No SDK changes, no authentication updates, no code modifications, no architectural overhaul. Deployment takes under 5 minutes.

All processing occurs exclusively in volatile RAM — nothing is written to persistent storage. Data exists only for the milliseconds required to analyze a request. Upon completion, it is instantly erased. Even if a breach occurred, there would be nothing to steal.

Financial Services (GDPR, PCI-DSS, NIS2), Healthcare (HIPAA, GDPR, patient data), Government & Public Sector (NIS2, EU AI Act, data sovereignty), Telecommunications (NIS2, GDPR), and SaaS & Technology (rapid deployment, multi-provider support).

Traditional DLP uses static pattern matching — it cannot understand the conversational context of AI interactions or detect prompt injection. APIRE uses semantic AI analysis that understands intent. SIEM tools are reactive (log and alert after the fact). APIRE is real-time and preventative — threats are blocked before they reach your AI provider.
