Zurich-based Lakera AI, announced the formal launch of its AI security platform, enabling developers to secure generative AI applications in the enterprise.

In addition to the launch, Lakera AI has secured $10M in a fresh funding round led by Redalpine.

Other founders, including Fly Ventures, Inovia Capital, and several industry expert angels, such as the co-founders of Snyk and key executives from Palo Alto Networks, Datadog, and Hybris, also participated.

Lakera AI works with any AI model or modality and instantly provides enterprise-grade security for AI applications.

In August 2023, Lakera AI released the beta version of Lakera Guard, to meet the urgent demand for a solution that protected LLMs in production.

Lakera Guard is powered by a proprietary database that combines crowdsourced insights from Gandalf, the company’s viral AI education game, with open-source databases and its own dedicated research.

Lakera’s database has amassed nearly 30M attack data points and is growing by 100k+ entries every day.

Lakera Guard empowers developers to activate this vulnerability data with one line of code, instantly embedding a security layer into AI applications in production.

Lakera Guard is LLM-agnostic and currently focuses on securing Q&A use cases by protecting against prompt injections (including jailbreaks, escape characters, role play, and system prompt leakage), PII detection and masking, content moderation, and hallucinations.
