Discover shadow AI, enforce DLP policies, and prevent data leaks across 8,000+ AI tools — from SaaS chatbots to local desktop agents and MCP servers. Includes real-time coachable moments so employees are guided, not blocked. Core components: Data Loss Prevention, Content Moderation, Access Management and User Permissions, Audit Trails, AI Threat Detection and Response. Key capabilities: Comprehensive discovery with zero blind spots across models, SaaS chatbots, desktop agents, and custom homegrown agents. Real-time DLP that masks PII, PCI, and sensitive data before prompts reach third-party models. Automated compliance and usage reports mapped to NIST, OWASP, MITRE, EU AI Act, SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and FedRAMP. Shadow AI coverage: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Salesforce Einstein, and custom internal GenAI applications. ### AI Agents Security - https://www.lasso.security/use-cases/ai-agents-security : Govern the full lifecycle of AI agents from build-time to runtime — whether built on Vertex AI, Microsoft Copilot, AWS Bedrock, Salesforce Agentforce, or any other cloud or third-party platform. Automatically discovers, assesses, and protects every agent as it runs autonomously. Core components: Agent and Tool Discovery, AI Attack Path Analysis, AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM), Identity and Access Management, AI Threat Detection and Response. Key capabilities: Platform-agnostic discovery across all agent builder services. Continuous monitoring and audit trails for every agent activity and tool call in real-time. Runtime protection via Intent Deputies that decode 3,000+ obfuscation techniques. Attack path visualization mapping agents to third-party tools, databases, and internal services with risk scores. ### AI Application Protection - https://www.lasso.security/platform/lasso-for-applications : End-to-end lifecycle governance for customer-facing chatbots, back-end AI applications, and AI personal assistants. Ensures innovations scale securely without compromising data or brand reputation. Core components: Discovery and AI-BOM, AI Model Risk Management, Automated AI Red Teaming, Inline Runtime Guardrails, AI Threat Detection and Response. Key capabilities: Unified policy controls for content moderation, data protection, and AI threats. Offensive Agents for best-in-class automated red teaming. Governance across the entire execution path with 99.8% threat detection accuracy. ### Intent Security - https://www.lasso.security/platform/intent-security : Lasso's proprietary Intent Deputy engine detects AI threats by analyzing the intent behind every interaction in real-time in under 50ms with 99.83% threat detection accuracy. The first intent baseline framework purpose-built for agentic AI. Unlike DLP (which uses regex classifiers that fail against context-dependent threats) and traditional guardrails (which block keywords that attackers learn to bypass), Intent Security understands why a user or agent is taking an action — catching attacks hidden within legitimate-looking requests. Key capabilities: Autonomous Agent Governance, Tool and Response Alignment, Multi-Agent Propagation Analysis, Explainable Compliance Reporting (8-dimensional coordinate system), Prompt Injection and Jailbreak Prevention, Identity-Linked Anomaly Detection, Rogue Agent Detection. ### AI Red Teaming - https://www.lasso.security/platform/lasso-red-teaming : Automated red teaming that simulates real-world attacks on LLMs and AI applications to uncover hidden vulnerabilities before deployment and in production. Tests against hundreds of thousands of known GenAI attacks curated by Lasso's research team. Key capabilities: Comprehensive automated testing against 3,000+ attack types. Actionable remediation (not just reports — automated fixes). Security Model Cards with categorized vulnerabilities and remediation guidance. System Prompt Analysis that identifies weaknesses and auto-generates guardrails. ### MCP Security - https://www.lasso.security/use-cases/mcp-security : Enterprise MCP (Model Context Protocol) security for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and custom AI agents. Complete visibility, real-time threat detection, and policy enforcement for all MCP server connections.
