AI Security
AI API Security
AI capabilities are delivered through APIs. We make sure those APIs are authenticated, authorized, rate-limited and monitored.
Overview
What is AI API Security?
AI API security covers model inference endpoints, AI gateway services and the business APIs that AI systems call. Key controls include strong client authentication, scoped authorization, secrets management for provider keys, quotas and rate limiting, input validation and detailed logging.
Why it matters
When organizations need it
These are common signs that an organization would benefit from AI API Security.
Signs you need it
- Model provider keys embedded in applications
