When your AI fails, your reputation, compliance, and bottom line are all at risk. Gray Swan's security solutions, developed by the researchers who first identified AI vulnerabilities, protect against the attacks and exploits that can turn your AI investment into a liability. One line of code deploys bi-directional security, while our automated red-teaming continuously identifies vulnerabilities before attackers do—all without compromising performance.
Gray Swan is an AI safety and security company. We develop tools that automatically assess the risks of AI models and we develop secure AI models that provide best-in-class safety and security.

AI is fundamentally different from current software systems. While all large-scale software carry risks, AI systems can amplify them and introduce new risks. Whereas traditional software follows clear logical rules specified by programmers, modern AI systems respond to developer and user commands in unexpected and potentially harmful ways.
When you deploy an AI system, it won't just follow the instructions you provide it, but also instructions provided by the user. Trying to build an AI that serves as a customer service representative? A malicious user can trick the system into initiating false service claims. Interested in using AI to parse incoming emails to your business? A spammer could trick the system into misclassifying an incoming message or even into exfiltrating sensitive data. The underlying challenge here is known as prompt injection vulnerabilities, the ability of users to effectively "reprogram" the AI models. Despite being a well-known vulnerability, extremely little progress has yet been made in mitigating this risk, with most companies explicitly ignoring this risk.
AI models are trained on a large amount of content from the internet, which could contain potentially harmful information or content that they are legally forbidden to generate (such as copyrighted content). Although most models put safeguards in place to prevent such misuse, malicious users can easily circumvent these safeguards, and access the "uncensored" capabilities of the LLM. In many cases, this can raise substantial legal questions regarding the deployment of such problems, and many organizations have thus far avoided using the systems due to this risk.
Finally, some of the most common ill effects of LLMs come not through intentional malicious use of the model, but through accidental misuse, due to the tendency of these models to hallucinate false information, or provide harmful/illegal responses even to benign queries.
Gray Swan AI provides solutions that mitigate the risk of deploying AI systems in any setting.
Cygnet is a model based upon Meta Llama3-8B, with additions developed at Gray Swan to provide best-in-class safety and security while retaining the performance of the underlying base model.
Shade is a comprehensive AI security and safety evaluation suite. We continuously integrate the latest results from adversarial AI research to continuously deliver concrete insights into how your deployment will behave under worst-case conditions.
Being at the forefront of new developments and fundamental discoveries about how AI can be made safe and secure—or finding new ways in which it can be broken—brings tremendous advantages when it comes to staying ahead of these risks.
Research has been a core part of our culture and what we do from the beginning.
