LLM PROMPT SHIELD

Stop adversarial prompts before they reach your model.

Prompt Shield detects the structure of the attempt; so a paraphrased jailbreak is just as visible as the original. Phrasing changes; the mechanism stays.

WHAT IT CATCHES

Every shape the attempt takes.

Your model is being probed right now. The attacks circulating today already paraphrase past keyword filters. The ones you’ll worry about next month, still unnamed today, get caught the day they land.

Adversarial inputs come in many forms: phrased as instructions, smuggled inside friendly conversation, encoded, translated, or wrapped in seemingly benign requests. The detection engine reads the structural intent of the attempt rather than its surface phrasing, which is what lets it catch paraphrased variants and entirely new patterns the same way it catches familiar ones.

…AND MANY MORE. Way more. We ship the structure of the attempt, so the next variant lands caught. Every time.

02 · HOW IT WORKS

Phrasing changes. Structure stays.

PHRASING-RESILIENT

Attackers rephrase. Mechanisms stay the same.

The same attack lands in English, in French, wrapped in a JSON payload, or framed as a hypothetical. The phrase is the surface. The mechanism is the signal; and that’s what we read.

EVERY-LANGUAGE COVERAGE

Multilingual by mechanism.

Production AI serves global users. An adversarial prompt in Arabic or Mandarin carries the same structural intent as its English original. Mechanism detection reads intent across languages: same engine, every locale.

THE STRUCTURAL INVARIANT

However an attack is phrased, translated, encoded, or wrapped, its structural signature, the shape of the coercion attempt, stays detectable. That’s the property Prompt Shield exploits. Defeating the mechanism is a fundamentally harder problem than changing the words.
