AI and Application Security Governance Platform

PointGuard AI, founded in 2021 in San Jose, provides a comprehensive enterprise platforms for AI Security & Governance and Application Security Posture Management. Instead of focusing solely on model-level protections, PointGuard aims to become a central control plane for AI security, offering visibility, risk assessment, and governance across the full AI lifecycle, from code and pipelines to deployed models and production AI interactions.

The platform’s AI discovery and threat-correlation engine spans GitHub repositories, pipelines, source code, AI tools, and deployed endpoints. This allows organizations to identify all AI projects, models, datasets, and shadow AI activity across their environments, addressing a growing challenge as enterprises adopt AI faster than governance teams can track it. By mapping AI artifacts to compliance and security policies, PointGuard provides early detection of unauthorized or unsafe AI usage.

PointGuard also brings extensive AI red teaming and stress-testing capabilities, simulating real-world adversarial scenarios such as malware injection, bias exploitation, harmful content generation, and prompt injection attacks. These tests expose unsafe behaviors and policy violations before models reach production. Once deployed, PointGuard continuously monitors AI interactions in real time, detecting jailbreaks, manipulation attempts, and data exfiltration behaviors while enforcing guardrails that prevent unsafe or noncompliant outputs.
