FAQs

Can I use my Microsoft Azure consumption commitment (MACC) to purchase Pillar Security?

Yes. Pillar Security is available in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, which means Azure customers can apply their Microsoft Azure consumption commitment (MACC) spend toward purchasing the Pillar AI security platform. This simplifies procurement while giving organizations access to enterprise-grade AI security through Azure's existing infrastructure.

How does Pillar Security's automated red teaming protect LLM applications before they reach users?

Pillar's automated red teaming evaluates LLM application resilience across multiple foundation models and deployment locations, proactively discovering undesired behaviors before users are exposed to them or attackers can exploit them. This shifts AI risk identification left, catching vulnerabilities during development rather than after a breach occurs in production.

What is LLM Asset Inventory and why do security and compliance teams need it?

LLM Asset Inventory is a Pillar Security capability that gives security and compliance teams full visibility into which LLM application attributes are in use, what configuration changes are occurring, and what system interactions are active across an enterprise. It addresses the governance gap that arises when AI deployments span multiple foundation models, versions, and locations.

How do Pillar Security's Adaptive Guardrails stay current against emerging AI threats?

Pillar's Adaptive Guardrails are continuously updated through three sources: findings from Pillar Security's own research team, threat intelligence derived from emerging AI attacks, and results from targeted application-specific red team assessments. This layered update mechanism ensures external protection against cybersecurity issues, data loss, and undesired behaviors remains current as the threat landscape evolves.

Which AI security frameworks does Pillar Security align with for risk assessment?

Pillar Security's risk findings align with two leading AI security frameworks: the OWASP Top 10 for LLMs and MITRE ATLAS. This alignment ensures that threat findings map to industry-recognized standards, helping security teams contextualize risks and satisfy compliance requirements across their AI-powered applications and workflows.
