Lakera
AI-native security platform for LLM applications, agents, and GenAI workflows
💬 What is Lakera?
Lakera is an AI-native security platform that protects LLM applications and enterprise AI usage from prompt injection, jailbreaks, data leakage, and toxic content. It is designed for security, platform, and product teams deploying GenAI features in production who need runtime protection, red teaming, and governance across workforce AI usage and AI agents. The platform combines a continuously updated threat model (informed by interactions with 1M+ hackers) with API-first deployment, multimodal and model-agnostic coverage, and a 0.01% production false positive rate at sub-50ms latency. Lakera is recognized in the OWASP LLM and GenAI Security Landscape Guide 2025 and is now part of Check Point Software Technologies.
