Compare AI security solutions

AI security is a new category with very different approaches — cloud CASB, browser extensions, API gateways, endpoint agents, and local prompt firewalls. The right choice depends on what you're protecting and how your team uses AI.

Why comparing AI security solutions matters

Most AI security vendors started as something else — SASE platforms, DLP tools, or API gateways — and added AI features later. The approach they chose determines what they can and can't see.

Cloud CASB tools (Netskope, Zscaler, Cato) route your traffic through their cloud, which works for browser-based AI but misses CLI tools and agents. Browser extensions (Harmonic, Nemoclaw) see what happens in the browser but are blind to SDKs and terminal sessions. API gateways (Lakera, Prompt Security) require code integration.

CitrusGlaze takes a different approach: a local-first prompt firewall that operates at the network layer, intercepting AI traffic from every source — browsers, CLIs, SDKs, and autonomous agents — without routing data through anyone else's cloud.

What makes CitrusGlaze different

Local-first

AI traffic is inspected on your device. Your prompts, code, and secrets never route through our cloud or anyone else's. Deploy in 5 minutes.

Prompt-level DLP

349+ patterns tuned for AI prompts. Catches secrets embedded in code blocks, tool calls, and multi-turn conversations that network DLP misses.

Every AI tool

39+ tools verified — browsers, CLIs, SDKs, desktop apps, and autonomous agents. Network-layer interception means nothing slips through.
